485 Mr. O'Leary asked the Minister for Education the current position regarding the proposed new primary school in Farranfore, County Kerry. [15495/96]

I take it that the Deputy's question relates to Knockaderry national school in Farranfore, County Kerry. The architectural planning work for the new school is completed and my Department is beginning the pre-qualification tender process by placing an advertisement in the National Press inviting contractors who are interested in tendering for the project to apply to my Department.
