asked the Minister for Education if he is aware of the very bad condition of the Ballyheaffy school, Araglin, County Waterford, and of the grave danger to the health of the eighty-six children who attend this school; and, if so, if he will arrange to have a school erected in the vicinity in the very near future, thereby alleviating the very bad conditions obtaining.

I am aware that a new national school is required at Ballyheaffy. A report on the suitability of the site for the new school is awaited.
