Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin):
I propose to take Questions Nos. 286 to 310, inclusive, together.
I am pleased to inform the Deputy that my Department is delivering a record school building programme which is transforming the standard of school accommodation throughout the country. Details of the rolling series of my announcements [314]on the programme are available on my Department’s website.
Between 2000 and 2005 my Department invested over €2 billion on educational infrastructure on over 6,500 individual school projects. This investment catered for the construction of new schools, large scale extensions and refurbishments, a wide range of projects under the Summer Works Scheme and a variety of other schemes. The investment in 2006 of over €500m will fund the delivery of over 1300 projects in schools all over the country.
My Department’s capital envelope of €3.9 billion will enable my Department to continue to take a proactive and planned approach to the provision and modernisation of school accommodation throughout the country.
