Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 March 2004
242 Mr. McHugh asked the Minister for Education and Science if an application from a school (details supplied) in County Galway for grant aid towards construction of two classrooms will be approved; when funding will be made available; the amount of funding that will be allocated; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8609/04]
View answerAn application for grant aid towards additional accommodation has been received from the management authority of the school to which the Deputy refers. When publishing the 2004 school building programme, I outlined that my strategy going forward will be grounded in capital investment based on multi-annual allocations. My officials are reviewing all projects which were not authorised to proceed to construction as part of the 2004 school building programme, with a view to including them as part of a multi-annual school building programme from 2005 and I expect to be in a position to make further announcements on this matter in the course of the year. The application from the school referred to will be considered in this regard.
243 Mr. S. Power asked the Minister for Education and Science if agreement has been reached on the extension at a school (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8610/04]
View answerProposals for the delivery of approximately 575m2 of modular accommodation this year have issued to the management authorities of Naas CBS. I understand that the management authorities have agreed in principle to the proposals.
