The transfer of Mercy Mounthawk school to State ownership under an agreement made 22 years ago has still not taken place.

The transfer was part of an indemnity deal agreed that year between the then Fianna Fáil-Progressive Democrats government and 18 religious orders.
Radio Kerry news editor Treasa Murphy has the details.
