Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 29 September 2004
527 Mr. Hogan asked the Minister for Education and Science when work will commence on a new school building at a school (details supplied) in County Kilkenny; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22287/04]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe building project for the school referred to by the Deputy is listed in section 8 of the 2004 school building programme which is published on my Department's website at www.education.ie. The project has a band 1 rating and is at the early stages of architectural planning process. The brief is currently being reviewed. It is not expected to go to construction during 2004.
My Department's officials are currently reviewing all projects that were not authorised to proceed to construction as part of the 2004 school building programme including the school in question with a view to including them as part of a multi-annual school building programme from 2005. I expect to make further announcements in this regard before the end of the year.
