Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 11 February 2014
197. Deputy Patrick Nulty asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will provide an update on the new school building for a school (details supplied) in Dublin 15; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6361/14]
View answerI can confirm that the school, to which the Deputy refers, has applied to my Department for large scale capital funding to provide for an extension and refurbishment works. In view of the financial constraints imposed by the need, as outlined in the Five Year Plan, to prioritise available funding for the provision of essential additional school places to meet demographic demand, my Department is not in a position to provide an indicative timeframe for the progression of a major capital project for the school, in question, at this time.
