An inquiry was received in my Department about the provision of an extra room at Canaholly national school, County Mayo, to serve, I understand, as a general purposes area for the school and as a meeting place for the local community. As the school in question is a two-teacher one, with two classrooms, grant assistance could not be afforded. My Department indicated that it would have no objection to the erection of an additional room at local expense, and was prepared to offer any technical assistance which might be sought from its local professional advisers.
