Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 25 November 2004
35 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for Education and Science if she will consider a school (details supplied) for inclusion under the small and rural scheme in order that the necessary refurbishment and extensions can be carried out. [30459/04]
View answerThe application for an extension and refurbishment from the school to which the Deputy refers is being considered as part of a review of all projects which did not proceed to construction as part of the 2004 school building programme. All projects are being assessed against the published prioritisation criteria, revised earlier this year following consultation 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 school building programme from 2005 onwards. I will be making further announcements on the school building programme in due course.
