Taoiseach To Weigh In On West Clare School Toilet Issue

The Taoiseach has pledged to intervene on a West Clare's school bid to expedite an upgrade of its toilet facilities. It's after Clare Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe raised the case of St Joseph's Secondary School in Spanish Point in the Dáil. It was claimed the school currently has 216 female students sharing just four cubicles between them and that a request to build an additional ten was approved by the Department five years ago, but has yet to be actioned. Taoiseach Micheál Martin says he wants to see the matter progressed.
