161. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the reason her Department has not as yet provided funding in respect of a school (details supplied) in County Kildare to address serious problems with a series of staircases where irregularities have been noted by an accident investigator and by a health and safety professional acting on behalf of the board of management; if she will accept liability in respect of any accident which occurs on these staircases arising out of the failure to date to provide the requisite funding to rectify the situation; if she will review the overall project at this school; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

I am pleased to inform the Deputy that funding under my Department's Emergency Works Scheme has recently been approved for the school in question with a view to having the works carried out during the summer holidays for health and safety reasons.
