Ceist:237 Mr. B. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Education when she intends to approve the commencement of the proposed new extension to a school (details supplied) in Cork. [14377/96]
Written Answers. - Cork School Extension.
Approval to proceed with the architectural planning of an extension to the school in question was given in July 1995. The Department's technical staff have recently completed their examination of the revised stage 1 submission which was submitted to the building unit by the school's consultant architect.
It is intended that a planning and briefing meeting will be held shortly between officials from the building unit and the school authorities.
The question of providing capital funds for building will not arise until the planning process has been fully completed. Every effort is being made to have the planning of the extension completed as quickly as possible.
