98 Mr. Martin asked the Minister for Education if she will make funds available for the promised extension and refurbishment of Ballinasloe vocational school, County Galway. [13085/97]

County Galway Vocational Education Committee has been given approval to appoint a design team for refurbishment works at Ballinasloe vocational school.

My Department has recently approved repairs to sanitation facilities at the school and is awaiting proposals with costings from the vocational education committee in relation to refurbishment works.

When these proposals are received they will be considered in light of available resources.
