Minister for Education (Ms Bhreathnach): Information on Niamh Bhreathnach  Zoom on Niamh Bhreathnach  The staffing of a national school is determined by the enrolment on 30 September of the previous year.

The enrolment of the school in question on 30 September 1994 was 293 which warrants a staffing of principal plus nine assistants for the 1995-96 school year. The school currently has a staff of principal plus ten assistants. The enrolment required for the retention of the tenth assistant from 1 September 1995 is 295.

[1341] However, I am having the matter re-examined in my Department. The Deputy will be informed of the outcome at an early date.
