I seek an update on the need for refurbishment work to be carried out at St. Brigid's school in Palmerstown. I have visited the school and seen that there is much work to be done, for example, to repair ceilings and ventilation and so on. It is a good school, housed in an old building and this refurbishment is urgently needed to bring it up to the required standard for the teachers and pupils. They have waited a long time for this work although work has been carried out at many other schools in the vicinity. I hope the Minister of State will give a positive response to this request.
