I propose to take Questions Nos. 376 and 381 together.

The project to which the Deputies refer is at an early stage of architectural planning. Officials from my Department recently visited the school and discussed the project with representatives from the school and the design team. Following the meeting, it was agreed that the design team would proceed to submit proposals for an appropriate design solution for the school. The progression of 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 for 2010 and subsequent years. 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 further progression of the project at this time.
