Question 224: To ask the Minister for Education and Science if there has been a health and safety assessment carried out on a school (details supplied) in Dublin 22; if her attention has been drawn to the growing number of health related complaints from children in the school believed to be due to the ill-serving 14 year old prefabricated huts in which the school sits; if there are plans to supply the school with a building; and if so, the status of those plans.

The school to which the Deputy refers is located in temporary rented accommodation. Since the property is being rented, any dissatisfaction with the condition of the accommodation should be brought to the attention of the lessor having regard to the terms of the lease.

I am pleased to inform the Deputy that agreement has been reached to provide permanent accommodation for the school in question on a V.E.C. owned site. The site is currently being master planned to facilitate both this school and two other all-Irish schools. All of the school authorities will be kept informed of progress in this regard.
