271 Mr. Crawford asked the Minister for Education and Science if additional accommodation will be provided at Drumacruttin national school, Drumacruttin, County Monaghan, for the pupils with special needs who have to be taught in the toilet area; if, at the very least, additional prefab accommodation will be provided, but preferably the planned extension as a matter of urgency; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The proposed large-scale building project for Drumacruttin national school is listed in section 7 of the 2003 school building programme which is published on my Department's website at www.education.ie This proposed project is at stage 3 of architectural planning, detailed plans and costs, and has been assigned a “band 2” rating by my Department in accordance with the published criteria for prioritising large-scale projects. I intend to publish details of the 2004 school building programme this week. The programme will clarify what progress is planned for projects such as Drumacruttin national school during 2004.
