As part of the expansion of the devolved scheme for primary school building works, a grant of €820,000 was sanctioned in March 2006 under the Small Schools Scheme to enable the management authority of the school in question to provide a new three classroom school.

The Devolved Initiative allows Boards of Management to address their accommodation and building priorities with a guaranteed amount of funding and gives Boards of Management control of the building project.

I understand that the Board of Management has sought Planning Permission for the construction of this school.
