307 Mr. Eoin Ryan asked the Minister for Education and Science the building progress of a primary school (details supplied) in the Dublin 6 area; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5984/04]

A large-scale building project for the school referred to by the Deputy is listed in section 9 of the 2004 school building programme which is published on my Department's website at www.education.ie. This project is at early stages of architectural planning. It has been assigned a band 2 rating by my Department in accordance with the published criteria for prioritising large-scale projects.

The budget announcement regarding multiannual capital envelopes will enable me to adopt a multiannual framework for the school building programme, which in turn will give greater clarity regarding projects that are not progressing in this year's programme. I will make a further announcements in that regard during the year.
