Seanad debates

Wednesday, 11 December 2002

I congratulate the Minister for Education and Science and the Ministers of State at his Department on their work. They have a good grasp of what is required. The amendment states what the Government intends to do, but I hope they take on board the issues that have been raised in the debate in order that urgent work on school buildings can be fast-tracked. The boards of management of the schools involved should be notified as quickly as possible regarding when they can expect the contracts for the projects to go to tender and work to commence and be completed. The Minister intends to do this. I wish him and the Department well. I thank the officials in the Department in Tullamore with whom Members have many dealings. They try their best to make progress and update us on different applications for school improvements.
