The allocation for primary school buildings in 2002 is €172.6 million. Following the completion of the Estimates process, the Minister for Education and Science intends to frame a further programme of works and the needs of Scoil Croí Íosa will be considered at that time. In the meantime, it is the responsibility of the board of management to ensure essential health and safety issues at the school are attended to. It should, therefore, continue to use the devolved grant for minor works. If the cost of any works of an emergency nature exceeds the amount available under the devolved grant, it may apply to the Department's building unit for additional grant aid.
