Mr. Stagg asked the Minister for Education and Science further to Parliamentary Question No. 212 of 1 June 2006, if additional educational psychologists are being assigned to schools in County Kildare; and if they are the schools in question. [27425/06]

  Ms Hanafin: The position remains unchanged from that outlined in my reply of 1 June 2006. The recruitment process in question is still underway. It is expected that the additional psychologists will be in place by the end of 2006. At that stage, the needs of schools in Co. Kildare will be looked at again in the context of overall priorities of NEPS for the deployment of additional resources.
