Question:

153 Mr. B. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Education when she intends to provide the necessary funding in order to add two additional classrooms to Scoil Barra, Ballincollig, County Cork in view of the fact that 12 of the classes in this school are greater than the maximum size. [9275/96]

Minister for Education (Ms Bhreathnach)

An application has been received from Scoil Barra, Ballincollig for additional classroom accommodation. This application is currently under consideration within my Department. When a decision is made, my Department will contact the school management. At this stage, I cannot say when funding might be available.
