I appreciate that and agree with the Minister there was an agreement, but I also believe, and she might also, that things have moved on now and parental choice is coming in here in a big way. There is a big demand in the area for this particular school as it is a very successful and popular school. I again put it to the Minister that there is an interim solution available. The Department of Education, I understand, owns the property and the Minister said it is until something else comes along or is made available. That is possible now with a bit of support from the Department in the short term. In the longer term, I put it to the Minister we need to move beyond that agreement, which is outdated because of the numbers in the school, the demand for places and the choice parents want to make.
