Question:

159 Deputy Finian McGrath asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will spend some of the €30 million for the school building programme at a school (details supplied) in Dublin 3. [11206/11]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills (Deputy Ruairí Quinn)

The €30 million allocation for the school building programme referred to by the Deputy was for small to medium scale works. Construction is already underway, since February 2011, on a large scale extension/refurbishment project at the schools referred to by the Deputy. Therefore there will be no requirement for additional funding for these schools from the €30 million allocation.
