The extension and refurbishment project at the school to which the Deputy refers has been assessed in accordance with the published prioritisation criteria, which were revised following consultation with the education partners. The project is being considered for the 2005 school building programme. The Deputy will be aware that I recently announced the first phase of the 2005 programme which provided details of 122 major school building projects countrywide which will prepare tenders and move to construction during the year. This announcement is the first in a series I plan to make in the coming period in relation to the schools building and modernisation programme. The programme will include details of schools identified as suitable for construction under public private partnerships, an expansion of the number of schools invited to deliver their building projects on the basis of devolved funding, details of schools with projects approved under the 2005 summer works scheme, schools whose projects will further progress through the design process and schools authorised to commence architectural planning.

Question No. 183 answered with QuestionNo. 46.
