Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 6 June 2012
137 Deputy Terence Flanagan asked the Minister for Education and Skills when funding will be provided for a new permanent school (details supplied) in Dublin 13; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26194/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe major building project referred to by the Deputy is currently at an early stage of architectural planning.
To ensure that every child has access to a school place, the delivery of projects to meet the increasing demographic demands will be the main focus for capital investment over the next 5 years, particularly in those areas where it has been identified that most future demographic growth will be concentrated.
The project referred to will continue to progress through the design stages of architectural planning within the context of available funding. However, due to competing demands on my Departments capital budget, it is not possible at this time to progress the project to tender and construction stage.
