Minister Helen McEntee Addresses Lack of School Places in Dunshaughlin as Local Parents' Frustrations Grow - 29/04/2026

We were joined in-studio on The Agenda this morning by Minister for Foreign Affairs & Meath-East Fine Gael TD, Helen McEntee, who was with us ahead of her visit to Dundalk today.  During our discussion with Minister McEntee this morning we addressed the issue of the lack of school places in Dushaughlin, with local parents becoming increasingly frustrated as they have still not recieved school places for their children in their preferred schools. Many parents are being forced to accept places outside of the Dunshaughlin area. We also discussed the fuel support scheme plan and what that will entail.Minister McEntee also told LMFM that "every effort" is being made to secure the return of two boys who were taken by their father during a family holiday in Egypt four years ago, to their mother in Dundalk.
