The property management section of the OPW, which acts on behalf of my Department with regard to site acquisitions generally, is continuing to explore the possibility of acquiring a site for a new school at Kill, County Kildare. Meanwhile, my officials are nearing completion of a review of all projects which did not proceed to construction as part of the 2004 school building programme with a view to including them as part of a multi-annual programme from 2005. All projects are assessed against the published prioritisation criteria, agreed earlier this year with the education partners. Each project will be assigned a band rating and the progress of all projects will be considered in the context of the programme from 2005. Following conclusion of the current Estimates and budgetary process, I intend to publish the 2005 building programme which will operate in a multi-annual framework.
