Question:

338 Mrs. T. Ahearn asked the Minister for Education and Science the steps he proposes to take to alleviate the traffic dangers at a school (details supplied) in County Tipperary; if he will relocate the school in view of the potentially life-threatening situation to students, parents and teachers; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I can confirm that my Department has received an application from the school in question for additional accommodation and this matter is being considered at present. The question of measures to alleviate traffic dangers is a matter for the relevant local authority.
