Vol. 573 No. 3

Written Answers. - Schools Building Projects.

Arthur Morgan

Ceist:

307 Mr. Morgan asked the Minister for Education and Science his views on the need for a new school to replace Scoil Uí Mhuirí, Dunleer; his further views on whether the current conditions at the school are acceptable; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24931/03]

The large-scale building project for Scoil Uí Mhuirí is listed in section 6 of the 2003 school building programme which is published on my Department's website at www.education.ie. This project is at stage 4-5, pre-tender documentation, of architectural planning. It has been assigned a band two rating by my Department in accordance with the published criteria for prioritising large-scale projects.

Projects listed in sections 6 and 7 will not be authorised to progress beyond their current stage of architectural planning at this time. Budgetary provisions in 2004 and subsequent years will determine the rate of progression to tender and construction of these projects in conjunction with the band rating individually assigned.
