Vol. 456 No. 7
101 Mr. Leonard asked the Minister for Education if she will give formal recognition to and provide funding for the development of a centre (details supplied) in County Cavan, in view of the demand for its facilities from educational institutions. [14661/95]
The position is that at present my Department has no approval to extend recognition to any new centres of the type referred to by the Deputy. Accordingly, I am not in a position to make funding available for the development of the centre in question.
The request for recognition and funding of this centre will be considered following a review of the operation and effectiveness of other such centres which are recognised by my Department. The Minister of State at my Department is making final arrangements to initiate this review which will get under way in the immediate future.
