Question:

223 Mr. Healy asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will approve Cahir boys’ national school, Cahir, County Tipperary, for the pilot scheme for the construction of much needed classrooms and physical education facilities; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8430/04]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Science (Mr. N. Dempsey)

An application for additional accommodation was received from Cahir boys' national school by my Department in 2000. However, the application was returned to the school authorities for necessary additional information. The completed application form has not as yet been received back from the school authorities. Accordingly, at present there is no application under consideration for funding for this school. On receipt of a completed application form for capital funding from Cahir boys' national school the matter will be considered further.
