asked the Minister for Education whether he is aware that Ballygarris National School, Hollymount, County Mayo, is in a very bad state of repair; and, if so, whether he will take steps to have this schoolhouse repaired or reconstructed immediately.

I am aware of the urgent need for carrying out a scheme of improvements to this school. Certain preliminary arrangements in connection with the leasing of additional ground are now nearing completion, and I hope that it will be possible at an early date to sanction a grant from State funds towards the cost of the scheme. Every effort will be made to have the case expedited with a view to enabling the works to be proceeded with as soon as possible.
