Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 March 2010
740 Deputy Pat Breen asked the Minister for Education and Science the number of schools in County Clare, both primary and secondary, that have made applications for school building projects; the band rating applied to these projects; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [12518/10]
Amharc ar fhreagraDue to industrial action on the part of some staff in the Department of Education and Science, I am not in a position to give full details of the project for the school referred to by the Deputy. However, the Deputy will be aware that all applications for Capital Funding, their address and assigned band rating are listed on my Department's website. The progression of all large scale building projects, from initial design stage through to construction will be considered in the context of the school building and modernisation programme. However, in view of the level of demand on the Department's capital budget, it is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the progression of projects at this time.
