Mary Wallace
Question:325 Miss M. Wallace asked the Minister for Education if she will consider sanctioning a physical education hall for Dunshaughlin Community College, County Meath; if a decision in respect of approval of such a hall could be taken as a matter of urgency in view of the fact that the Dunshaughlin Community Centre Committee currently has £300,000 to spend on a community centre but has an option of providing such a centre on its existing site on Main Street or on the site provided by the County Meath vocational education committee on the Dunshaughlin Community College site and in view of the fact that the advice of the ILAM was sought to provide this facility on the community college site following a recommendation by her Department and ILAM recommended that the facility provided at the community college would cost an additional £195,000; her views on whether a decision on this issue from her Department is urgent in view of the fact that the Community Centre Committee is in a position in 1997 to provide a £300,000 project on Main Street or to link with her Department to provide a £495,000 centre/physical education hall adjacent to the school; the information currently available in her Department regarding the urgency of a decision on this issue; the further information, if any, currently required; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
