Adjournment Matters. - Schools Building Projects.

 

The school has advanced to stage four and five with costings agreed. The design of the school has been agreed and a fire certificate can also be furnished. All that is required at this stage is a commitment from the Department of Education and Science to allow the school to go to tender. It is now a matter of urgency that this commitment be given. The present educational achievements have been obtained in an environment which is not conducive to educational purposes. Newcastlewest has rapidly expanded and has been approved for the decentralisation project for 50 Revenue staff. I hope the Minister, at this stage, will allow the school to proceed to tender and the much-needed new school to be erected.
