Written Answers. - Schools Refurbishment. Tuesday, 16 June 1998

Dáil Éireann Debate Vol. 492 No. 4 Page of 281

  328.  Mr. Ring      asked the Minister for Education and Science      when funding will be sanctioned to carry out repairs to a primary school (details supplied) in County Mayo. [14043/98]

Minister for Education and Science (Mr. Martin):    The school to which the Deputy refers has applied to my Department for grant-aid towards major repairs and refurbishment. In considering a request for major work at a school, my Department usually considers if there is a possibility of rationalisation locally to cater for the area's long-term educational needs. This process is ongoing at present. The Department has written to the school management on the matter. When this issue is resolved, I will be in a position to take a decision on the funding question.
