Written answers

Minister for Education and Science (Deputy Mary Hanafin)

I can confirm to the Deputy that the school to which he refers has applied to the Department for capital funding. The progression of the proposed project and funding thereof will be considered in the context of my Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme.
