[20622/99]

The planning and building unit of my Department has given approval to the managerial authorities of St. David's Holy Faith secondary co-educational school in Greystones, County Wicklow, to seek tenders for the replacement of the boiler and repairs to the heating mains.

The Deputy can be assured that every effort is made to ensure that works likely to impact on the day to day running of a school are discharged, as far as possible, during vacation periods.
