Refusal of capitation grants

Summary

Asked whether grants had been refused for registered pupils, the Minister said this may happen when attendance falls below 70 but could not confirm a specific case.

John Horgan Mr. Horgan Labour Party

Will the Minister say if in any given case a capitation grant has been refused by his Department for a pupil who was registered at a particular school at the beginning of the year?

If the attendance falls below 70 I am sure it has happened but I cannot say offhand what is the position.
