Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 June 2009
476 Deputy Seán Sherlock asked the Minister for Education and Science the status of an application under the school building programme by a school (details supplied) in County Cork; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24450/09]
View answerThe application to which the Deputy refers has been assessed in the Planning and Building Unit of my Department in accordance with the published prioritisation criteria for large scale building projects. It has been assigned a Band 2 rating under these criteria.
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 my Department, it is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the progression of the project at this time.
