asked the Minister for Education whether he is aware that a dance was held on the 6th January, 1928, in St. Bernard's National Schools, Clonbroney Parish, County Longford; and whether this dance was held by or under the auspices of a political organisation.

I have communicated with the manager of the schools, who gives his assurance that they have never been used for a dance under the auspices of a political organisation.
