Question:

345. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Education and Skills if a scheme is available whereby old portacabins previously used in schools are leased or given to groups (details supplied). [34756/17]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I wish to advise that a scheme as described by the Deputy is not available. Typically, schools may lease prefabs from prefab suppliers pending the construction of a permanent building. The schools subsequently arrange for the removal and return of the prefabricated units to the prefab suppliers at the end of the rental contract period.
