asked the Minister for Education when it is proposed to build a new national school in Brittas, County Dublin, to replace the existing school which is in a very bad condition.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Dublin School.
My Department has sanctioned a grant for the erection of a new national school at Brittas, County Dublin, and the case has been referred to the Office of Public Works for the preparation of plans and the completion of the other preliminary arrangements which require to be made before work may be started on the erection of the building. Because of the very large amount of school building work which the commissioners have in hands at present, it is not possible to say how soon the stage will be reached when actual building work will be commenced.
Is the Minister aware that this school is in a shocking condition and will he try to get the matter expedited?
The position with regard to this school has been having my attention for quite a long time and I am happy to note that the position with regard to having an adequate and big enough site has been satisfactorily overcome. Nothing will be left undone to expedite the matter.
