An application for grant assistance towards the provisions of a PE hall at St. David's CBS, Artane, has been received in my Department.
It is the policy of my Department's planning and building unit to incorporate PE facilities and changing areas into the schedule of accommodation for new schools or for major extentions to schools where previously there was no such accommodation or unsatisfactory existing facilities.
