I propose to take Questions Nos. 1087, 1089, 1090, 1092 to 1095, inclusive, and 1098 together.

I can confirm to the Deputy that the schools to which he refers have applied for large scale capital funding. The applications have been assessed in accordance with the published prioritisation criteria for large scale building projects. Progress on individual projects will be considered in the context of the multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme.

The progression of all projects to tender and construction, including the proposed extension at the school in question, will be considered in the context of my Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme. As I indicated in the post budget education briefing, I intend to announce shortly the first tranche of projects that will proceed to construction in 2008.

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.
