Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 April 2016
444. Deputy Seán Haughey asked the Minister for Education and Skills if she will sanction two temporary classrooms for a school (details supplied) in Dublin 13 while the permanent structures are under construction; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7774/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI can confirm that the school referred to by the Deputy was approved devolved funding in 2015 to build two mainstream classrooms, to meet its 2015/16 accommodation needs.
The school subsequently contacted my Department to request provision of interim temporary accommodation until the devolved permanent accommodation project is complete. The school's application for temporary accommodation was examined and the Department approved the rental of temporary accommodation for the school in question. This decision has been conveyed to the school.
