Written Answers. - Grant Aid.

Tony Gregory

Question:

109 Mr. Gregory asked the Minister for Education the contents of the report received from her professional advisers, arising from her reply to Parliamentary Question No. 309 on 25 October 1994, regarding the steps that were taken to ensure proper protection of the school yard; the decision, if any, that has been made in relation to grant aid for the school authorities in view of the deteriorating conditions, including open access across the yard where two syringes have been found in recent weeks, where 107 children between the ages of five and 13 years play and where both children and teachers are at risk. [14352/95]

The report received from my Department's professional advisers recommends that a more secure palisade type fencing be provided at the school.

The work is at present being planned and costed by the Office of Public Works. I expect that my Department will have details for the school authorities within the next couple of weeks.
