I propose to take Questions 165, 166, 172 and 173 together.

The provision of buildings and accommodation for the Department of Education and Skills, and the management of associated leases, is a matter for the Office of Public Works.

In relation to schools, my Department generally grant aids school authorities who use the funds to rent temporary school accommodation. The terms of the leases are a matter for individual boards of management.
