Question 192: To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the reason the progression of a new school building for a school (details supplied) in County Donegal was not included on the five-year school building programme, in view of the fact that the project was at an advanced stage. [15725/12]

Planning permission for a new school building for the school, referred to by the Deputy, has been refused in respect of the proposed site. My Department has been in contact with the school in this regard. In view of the need to ensure that every child has access to a school place, the delivery of major school projects required to meet demographic demand will be the main focus for capital investment in the coming years. It is not possible therefore to give an indicative timeframe for the progression of the project at this time.
