Frosses school delay and local contribution

Summary

Molloy stresses the school’s poor condition and questions whether the transfer explains delay. Creed says progress depends on agreement with the board chairman on the local contribution.

I am raising the reasons given for the delay in proceeding with the construction of the new national school in Frosses. It was the school of the late Deputy Clem Coughlan and I know it very well. I know its dreadful condition and the need for a new school.

You cannot make a speech on it.

If the Minister is saying that the delay is caused partly by the Office of Public Works, surely the Minister's announcement some months ago has a role to play.

That is a separate question. It is argument.

The local contribution has not been agreed by the chairman of the board of management. Once this is agreed we can proceed to the next stage.
