I propose to take Questions Nos. 932 and 978 together.

I wish to advise the Deputies that the progression of all projects, including the project in question, will be considered in the context of my Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme.

Tenders for the project referred to by the Deputy are currently with my Department. Progression of all projects to tender and construction are considered in the context of my Department's Multi-Annual School Building and Modernisation Programme. As indicated at the post budget education briefing I intend to announce the first tranche of projects that will proceed to construction in 2008 shortly.
