I draw the Deputy's attention to the series of announcements I have made so far this year as part of the 2006 school building programme, details of which are available on my Department's website at www.education.ie. These announcements were published in county order, outline — schools authorised to commence architectural planning; details of schools with projects approved under the 2006 summer works scheme; schools with major building projects allowed to move to tender and construction; and schools invited to deliver their building projects on the basis of devolved funding.

Applications for capital works from schools in County Roscommon which are not included in these announcements are being assessed and considered for inclusion in further announcements as part of the 2006-10 school building and modernisation programme.

To assist primary school authorities to complete general upkeep and maintenance, an annual grant is paid to schools under the grant scheme for minor works. This is also known as the devolved grant. The level of grant paid amounts to €3,809 per school plus €12.70 per pupil.
