Vol. 505 No. 1
255 Mr. M. Higgins asked the Minister for Education and Science if phase two of the expansion to accommodation for Castleknock community college will be completed in time for all of the intake of new pupils in September 1999; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13158/99]
The building programme for the phase two extension at Castleknock community college has, unfortunately, fallen behind schedule due to the recent scaffolders strike. Consequently, it now appears that the project will not be completed before 1 September 1999.
However, the matter of renting temporary classrooms to ensure that there is adequate accommodation at the school for new pupils presenting in September 1999 is currently under consideration. It is envisaged that rented accommodation will be necessary only for a short period.
