127 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Education and Science if central heating facilities are available in all schools throughout the country; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3710/98]
Statistics are not available on the type of heating facilities in all schools throughout the country. All new schools grant-aided by my Department are provided with central heating. Existing schools which make application for grant-aid towards the provision of central heating are given consideration in the light of the available capital funds.
