Vol. 243 No. 11

Ceisteanna—Questions, Oral Answers. - Closure of Galway Schools.

66.

asked the Minister for Education if he is aware of the great local dissatisfaction at the proposal to close Tullokyne and Tooreeny national schools at Moycullen, County Galway; and if he will ensure that this proposal is not proceeded with.

The school at Tullykyne is in poor condition and has been recommended for replacement. The school at Tooreeny is housed in an old building. It is proposed accordingly to cater for the pupils of Moycullen, Tullykyne and Tooreeny school districts by the erection of a new central school at Moycullen.

My information is that a recent meeting of parents of the three school districts indicated a large majority in favour of a new central school in Moycullen.
