390 Mr. P. Breen asked the Minister for Education and Science if she has received and when she will consider funding for an application from a school (details supplied) in County Clare in regard to a prefabricated unit to deal with special needs and other related activities; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7526/05]
Amharc ar fhreagraAll applications for temporary accommodation have been considered in the school planning section of my Department. In the context of the available funding and the number of applications for that funding, it was not possible to approve all applications received and only those with an absolute and demonstrated need for additional accommodation were approved. The application for a resource room in temporary accommodation at the school to which the Deputy refers was not successful on this occasion. The school authority has been advised accordingly.
