517. Deputy Bobby Aylward asked the Minister for Education and Skills the position regarding an application by a school (details supplied) for capital funding to replace an undersized classroom and old prefabricated unit; if he will consider this application as a matter of urgency in view of poor conditions being endured by teachers and pupils; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am pleased to inform the Deputy that my Department has recently approved capital funding under the Additional School Accommodation (ASA) scheme for the school in question.  The School Authority has been informed accordingly.
