392 Mr. Deenihan asked the Minister for Education and Science if a new properly-equipped science room and other facilities will be provided at Gael Choláiste Chiarraí, Moyderwell, Tralee, County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4152/02]

429 Mr. Spring asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will approve the commencement of work on a science facility at Gaelcholáiste Chiarraí. [4299/02]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 392 and 429 together.

The application for new facilities for Gaelcholáiste Chiarraí is being examined in the planning section of my Department in the context of a review of overall provision of post primary education in Tralee.

The school authorities will be notified of the outcome of this examination shortly.
