I can confirm to the Deputy that the Department is in receipt of an application for large scale capital funding from the school to which he refers. The project has been assessed in accordance with the published prioritisation criteria for large scale building projects. Progress on the proposed works is being considered in the context of the multi-annual School Building and Modernisation programme.

The Department is not in receipt of an application for capital funding from the school to which the Deputy refers. At the time the response issued to Parliamentary Question Number 856 on the 24th April, 2007, I said that the Department understood that the school was preparing an application for major capital funding, however, this has not materialised.

The project to which the Deputy referred to is at an early stage of architectural planning. A Stage 3 submission was examined by officials from my Department and clarification was sought from the Design Team on a number of items. This clarification has recently been received and it is currently being examined by my Department's technical team. The school's Board of Management will be kept advised of developments when the examination is complete.
