The school to which he refers was successful this year under my Department's small schools scheme for the provision of permanent accommodation for a four teacher school. It was included in my announcement of the 6 March 2006 in this regard. I confirm that, in the meantime, the school has requested temporary accommodation until its permanent structure is in place. This application is under consideration and officials in the school planning section of my Department will be in contact with the school authority when a decision is reached in the matter.
