Occupied territories Bill and Sacred Heart school
Deputy Murphy pressed the Taoiseach on the occupied territories Bill during the Gaza exchange. The Taoiseach reaffirmed Ireland’s stance on the Middle East and later said the Department had been engaging with Sacred Heart Junior National School and hoped to resolve its funding problem.

I believe the issue Deputy Murphy raised is resolved. The Department has been trying to engage with the school for quite a while since December. It referred the school to the financial support services unit in December. The Department was awaiting information. I think Deputy Lahart was proactively involved in trying to get the issue resolved. I hope we can get it finally and comprehensively resolved.
