Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 26 May 2004
143 Mr. G. Mitchell asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will re-examine the need for an infant school (details supplied) in Dublin 12 in conjunction with the boys and girls primary schools, to have the windows replaced; and if these will be replaced. [15822/04]
View answerThe scope of the works required at the school referred to by the Deputy are appropriate for consideration under the summer works scheme which was announced in December last. The closing date for applications under the scheme was 30 January 2004. I note that the school in question did not make an application for replacement windows under this scheme.
Subject to a review of the summer works scheme 2004, it is planned to invite applications for the 2005 scheme later this year. Full details will be posted on my Department's website at www.education.ie as soon as possible.
In the interim, the school authority should use its devolved grant to deal with urgent health and safety works where required.
