Vol. 440 No. 4

Written Answers. - School Building Projects.

Paul McGrath

Question:

377 Mr. McGrath asked the Minister for Education the number of building projects and the value grant-aided by her in each of the last ten years in each category of second level school.

The capital allocation for second level schools provides for the funding of major building projects, minor capital works, emergency repairs, the provision of temporary accommodation, site/ property acquisition and equipment and resource grants.

A very substantial number of schools benefit each year from the capital allocation.

The detailed number of building projects assisted is not available, but the overall expenditure by second level category of school for the ten years is as follows:
