I propose to take Questions Nos. 928 and 929 together.

I wish to advise the Deputy that certain remediation works were carried out recently in the school to which she refers. Structural remediation works on the external leaf wall enabled the removal of the temporary precautionary measures, fire remediation works were also carried out on the life safety systems which included the Fire alarm, emergency lighting and gas system. The Department will be in direct contact with the school in relation to any additional works requirements and timelines for same.

As you are already aware, the arrangement for the crèche to use part of the school building is a local private arrangement between the school authority and the crèche. The crèche itself is a private company and therefore it will be a matter for the school authority to keep the crèche informed of any changes to their current arrangement.
