Vol. 564 No. 5
170 Ms B. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Education and Science the reason for the delay in the provision of funding for the new central primary school in Rathmore, County Kerry; if he will give a commitment that funding will be made available in the next budget; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9615/03]
The 2003 school building programme has now been published and full details in relation to individual projects are available on my Department's website at www.education.ie.
On the basis of the budgetary allocation it was not possible to include any further projects in 2003. The budgetary allocation for 2004 and subsequent years will determine the rate of progress on projects that could not be included in this year's programme. In the meantime, individual schools should use their devolved grant to deal with any urgent health and safety works.
