I am aware that the scheme of improvements for Milverton National School, Skerries, County Dublin, has not yet commenced. A water flushed system of sanitation is included in the scheme and a well has been sunk to provide the necessary supply of water. Detailed working drawings have been completed by the Office of Public Works and the preparation of the specification is in hands. Copies of these documents will have to be made before the tenders can be invited. I understand that tenders will be invited about the end of next month. It is anticipated that building operations will commence shortly afterwards.
