View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 81 to 85 inclusive and 87 together.
I am pleased to advise the Deputy that Muckross Park College is one of 32 additional schools that will benefit from the further €30 million investment in school buildings that I announced yesterday. These schools will bring to over 200 the number of schools with significant building projects to be authorised to go to tender and construction during 2004. My Department will be contacting the school regarding the delivery of the building project.
