Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 10 April 2025
228. Deputy Darren O'Rourke asked the Minister for Education further to Parliamentary Question No. 420 of 25 March 2025, if she will provide a list of the schools referred to the FSSU; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [18229/25]
Amharc ar fhreagraSchools are autonomous entities, managed by their own boards of management. Schools in financial difficulty are encouraged to contact my Department for assistance. The FSSU is a source of financial advice and support to schools, and schools that are referred to the FSSU by my Department receive appropriate assistance and guidance from that unit. The Department is in regular contact with the FSSU concerning schools in financial difficulty, and other matters. It would not be appropriate for my Department to provide a list of schools referred to the FSSU.
