Question:184 Mr. Cosgrave asked the Minister for Education if any moneys are allocated by her Department for a new community school at Dingle, County Kerry.
Written Answers. - Grant Payments.
I have approved in principle the development of a single voluntary coeducational secondary school in Dingle to incorporate the Christian Brothers and Presentation secondary schools. My Department are currently awaiting the completion of educational work-sheets by the school authorities to enable a schedule of accommodation for the amalgamated school to be prepared. Therefore, the question of the allocation of funds for the project at this stage does not arise.

The vast bulk of the grant in respect of the erection of St. Helen's senior national school, Portmarnock, County Dublin has been paid to the school authorities. There is a small balance of grant in hands and the final accounts for the project will be examined with a view to paying this amount to the school authorities at the earliest possible date.
