Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 24 September 2008
1654 Deputy Leo Varadkar asked the Minister for Education and Science if funding has been approved to construct permanent primary school buildings in Tyrrelstown, Dublin 15; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29592/08]
View answerMy Department is aware of the accommodation pressures being experienced by the schools in the Tyrrellstown area and is also cognisant of the ever-increasing demand for school places.
To meet this need, my Department has provided significant additional capacity in rapidly developing areas this year, particularly the Dublin 15 area.
The progression of further major capital project will be considered on an on-going basis in the context of the Department's Multi-Annual School Building and Modernisation Programme and is of course subject to the availability of capital resources.
