asked the Minister for Education if, in the case of community schools which have swimming pools, he will state the sources from which their cost has been defrayed.
Mr. R. Burke
With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to take Questions Nos. 28, 29 and 30 together.
Swimming pools have been provided in association with the sports complex in the case of four community schools. In each case the pools were provided in accordance with an arrangement with the local authority for the area concerned that my Department would receive an agreed contribution from the authority towards the full estimated cost of such provision.
In the case of the Coolmine and Tallaght community schools, the agreed contribution from Dublin County Council in respect of each school was £75,000.
Has any contribution been made by the Department in this regard?
Mr. R. Burke
No.
