Ceist:178 Mr. Martin asked the Minister for Education if she will provide funding for the construction of a school hall at Scoil Íosagáin, Farranree, Cork. [19148/96]
Written Answers. - School Hall Construction.
I am not in a position to provide funding towards a school hall at Scoil Íosagáin, Farranree, Cork, at this time. While I am anxious to extend the provision of general purpose facilities in primary schools, the pace at which this can be achieved will be dictated by the financial resources available and the priority must remain the provision of essential classroom accommodation and the elimination of existing sub-standard classrooms.
