Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 February 2009
517 Deputy Paul Connaughton asked the Minister for Education and Science the position regarding an application for an extension to a school (details supplied) in County Galway; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that planning permission has been granted, and that there are accommodation problems at this school; when the necessary funding will be available to the school; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerThe project to which the Deputy refers is currently at an advanced stage of architectural planning. The progression of all large scale building projects, including this project, from initial design stage through to construction phase will be considered in the context of my Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme. However, in light of current competing demands on the capital budget of the Department, it is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the progression of the project at this time.
