Vol. 451 No. 8
171 Mr. Lawlor asked the Minister for Education the proposals, if any, she has to expand educational facilities at primary or post-primary level in Ballyfermot, Dublin 24; if she intends to build a new facility or use existing school buildings not in current educational use; if any expansion of educational facilities will cater for pupils in nearby Cherry Orchard; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7536/95]
Within the past year, my Department has approved the provision of new accommodation at three post-primary schools in Ballyfermot: Caritas College, St. Dominic's Secondary School and Ballyfermot Vocational School.
At primary level, my Department has recently approved the provision of new accommodation at St. Louise's Junior School.
Also, in relation to primary school accommodation generaly in the greater Ballyfermot area, including Cherry Orchard, a survey of future needs is being carried out. The question of using existing school buildings not in current educational use or the provision of additional accommodation will be considered in the context of this survey.
