I propose to take Questions Nos. 323 and 331 together.

The school referred to by the Deputy has made an application for capital funding towards the provision of additional classroom and ancillary accommodation. It was necessary, to ensure that the planned capital investment will meet the school's long-term accommodation needs, to review the long-term projected staffing at the school. My officials are nearing the completion of this exercise and will be in contact with the school authority in this regard. A decision will then be made on how best to meet the school's future accommodation needs. The project is being considered for progression in the context of the 2005-09 school building and modernisation programme.
