Vol. 447 No. 1
353 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Education if she will sanction the construction of an inter-school indoor communal facility at Scoil an Spioraid Naoimh, Curheen Road, Bishopstown, Cork. [3335/94]
I assume that the Deputy is referring to the provision of a school hall/general purposes room to serve the boys and girls' schools in question.
I am anxious to extend the provision of general purpose facilities in primary schools and in this regard I have indicated my intention to provide for general purpose rooms in new primary school building projects in respect of schools of four classrooms or more.
I will, however, be looking at the possibilities of further grant-aid for general purpose facilities in the light of capital funds available in 1995.
