214 Mr. Walsh asked the Minister for Education and Science the position regarding the provision of a central teacher training facility in Dunmanway, County Cork; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [18942/06]

I presume the Deputy is referring to the proposed refurbishment/extension to the Model School, Dunmanway to accommodate the Dunmanway Education Centre.

The project is being considered in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006-2010.
