Vol. 562 No. 3

Written Answers - Schools Refurbishment.

John Gormley

Ceist:

30 Mr. Gormley asked the Minister for Education and Science the steps his Department plans to take to immediately sort out the problems being experienced by Scoil Áine and Scoil Íde - Presentation girls - with a 33 year old heating system, in view of the fact that the devolved grant is insufficient to meet the ?30,000 maintenance or ?60,000 replacement costs and there are also problems with the roof that need to be addressed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5890/03]

My Department's building unit has authorised the school manager to appoint a consultant engineer to report on the electrical and mechanical installations at Scoil Áine, Clondalkin.

When this report is received and considered, my Department will be in contact with the school authorities.
I am pleased to inform the Deputy that provision has been made in this year's school building programme for a small scale project to repair a roof and replace light fittings at Scoil Áine.
