Dáil Éireann Debate Vol. 747 No. 3 Page of 497

  171.  Deputy Michael Creed      asked the Minister for Education and Skills      the position regarding an over-run of costs for a school building project (details supplied); if he accepts the detailed engineering evidence submitted; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35908/11]

Minister for Education and Skills (Deputy Ruairí Quinn):    The school referred to by the Deputy was allocated devolved funding for the provision of a mainstream classroom and a resource room under my Department’s Additional Accommodation Scheme in 2010. The school authorities recently sought additional funding towards this building project. My Department’s Planning and Building Unit is currently examining the application and has written to the school authorities seeking additional information relating to the request. As soon as the information is received a final decision will be communicated to the school authority.
