The details of the schools in Counties Roscommon and Leitrim that are in the pre-architectural planning stage are given in the tabular statement.

The Deputy should be aware that the details refer to major capital grant applications only and does not include applications for funding under schemes such as the Summer Works Scheme and Emergency Works Scheme.

The progression of all large scale building projects from initial design stage through to construction phase will be considered in the context of the Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme.

However, in light of current competing demands on the capital budget of the Department, it is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the progression of these projects at this time.
