asked the Minister for Education if there are proposals before his Department for extra classrooms for Piltown national school, County Waterford; and if an additional teacher is to be employed there.

97.
It is proposed to extend and convert the existing two-classroom school at Piltown, County Waterford, to provide accommodation in three suitable classrooms and a general purposes room.
The Commissioners of Public Works are investigating the feasibility of carrying out such a scheme and will report to my Department in due course. It is not possible for me to say at this stage when the scheme, if it is found feasible, will be put in hands.
In the meantime my Department have approved of the provision of a prefabricated classroom to accommodate the third teacher. When this additional accommodation has been provided the matter of the appointment of a third teacher in the school will be dealt with.
