I wish to advise the Deputy that my Department has approved significant funding to the school in question in recent years to provide improved accommodation. This includes:
€100,000 in April 2012 to build a mainstream classroom.
€55,000 under the 2012 Pre-Fab Replacement Initiative to replace a rented prefab with a permanent structure.
€30,000 in May 2011 to build a Resource Room.
€199,530 under the 2010 Summer Works Scheme for Roof Works.
€250,576 in December 2008 to replace two prefabs reported to be in poor condition as well as the provision of an additional prefab.
I also wish to advise the Deputy that my Department will however shortly make contact with the school authorities in relation to its accommodation needs.
