Ceist:

235 Mr. Deenihan asked the Minister for Education the proposals, if any, she has for the provision of a national indoor sports stadium as outlined in the Programme for Partnership Government 1993 to 1997.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 18, 39, 47, 50, 55, 83 and 235 together.

The specific proposal for the provision of a National Indoor Stadium on a site at the Custom House Docks is not now to proceed as already decided by Government. The future of the site earmarked for the project is under consideration.

As to the general question of a National Indoor Stadium, the Government will, as indicated in the Programme for Government, support the building of an Indoor National Sports Stadium. No specific proposals are currently before my Department in relation to this project.
