The extension project for the school referred to by the Deputy is at an early stage of architectural planning. It has a band two rating. My Department's technical staff are currently examining the stage one documentation — site suitability and site analysis. The school authorities will be kept advised of developments. My officials are nearing completion of a review of all projects that did not proceed to construction as part of the 2004 school building programme, including the school in question. All projects are being 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 school building programme from 2005 onwards.
With regard to health and safety issues, responsibility is a matter in the first instance for individual school authorities. My Department has received an application for the upgrading of the electrical installation in the school under the summer works scheme 2005. Officials in the school building unit will be in contact with the management authorities when a decision is made on their application.
