Ceist:237 Mr. Connaughton asked the Minister for Education and Science if his attention has been drawn to the gross overcrowding at Killeeneen national school, Craughwell, County Galway; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that a development plan for the school was drawn up as long ago as October 2001 and is with the planning section of his Department in Tullamore; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that the accommodation is totally inadequate; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that there is huge increase in the population in this area and that the school can be regarded as sub-standard under many headings unless the school extension is funded immediately; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
