Vol. 463 No. 6

Written Answers. - Cavan School Building Project.

Brendan Smith

Ceist:

205 Mr. B. Smith asked the Minister for Education when tenders will be invited for the building project of a school (details supplied) in County Cavan; when construction will commence; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7173/96]

The school to which the Deputy refers is included in my Department's 1995 capital building programme. This project is in the early stages of architectural planning and it is not possible at this time to state when tenders will be invited or when construction will commence.

When all planning work has been completed, a decision on the tender and contract process will be taken in the light of other priority projects, and available financial resources.

206 Mr. B. Smith asked the Minister for Education when a tender will be approved for the construction of a new national school (details supplied) in County Cavan when building work will commence; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7174/96]

I am not in a position to state precisely when a tender will be approved for the construction of a new building at the school referred to by the Deputy. The tenders for this project are currently being evaluated within my Department. There are a number of steps to be completed in the tender-contract process, not all of them within the direct control of my Department. For this reason, I am not in a position to state when construction will commence. I can say that there will be no delay on the part of my Department in expediting the process.
