Seanad debates

Wednesday, 11 December 2002

The amendment to the motion states that the Government wants to advance what is described as public private partnership projects in primary school areas as speedily as possible. What is meant by that? I am not aware to date of examples where schools have been built with private sector funding. I would not oppose it on any ideological basis, and there may be one case.If so, let us see it. I am not aware of any example in the primary school sector. I would like to see the refurbishment of schools advanced as speedily as possible. Delivering this for the 400 schools on the list will take a huge amount of revenue over the next few years.
