189 Mr. Perry asked the Minister for Education and Science the progress made on the provision of three additional classrooms for St Enda's national school, Carraroe, County Sligo; the reason work has not commenced in view of the fact that the school has 320 pupils; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the pupils and teacher occupy eight classrooms in the main building and four prefabs outside, with 33% of children and staff in temporary prefab accommodation; if the necessary steps will be taken to address the inadequate facilities which exist at present; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
