Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

The building project for the school referred to by the Deputy is at an early stage of architectural planning. It has a band three rating. My Department's officials are reviewing all projects that were not authorised to proceed to construction as part of the 2004 school building programme, including the project 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.
