Ceist:

1333 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Education and Science if he has made a decision on the redevelopment of Ballyleague national school, County Roscommon; the reason for the delay in making such a decision; if he intends to construct a new school; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2471/02]

The allocation for primary buildings in 2002 is 153.6 million, which is a record level of funding and demonstrates this Government's commitment to improving the accommodation situation in primary schools. This is almost four times the previous Government's investment in 1997. In view of the greatly increased level of activity in the primary buildings area since this Government came into office, there has been a substantial increase in the number of major and minor building projects in construction and this has given rise to a record level of building and refurbishment activity.

A building project for the Ballyleague national school is part of the Government's programme. This project will continue to architectural planning and to the preparation of tender documents as soon as it is possible to do so, under the expanded building programme.
