145. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if she will urgently examine submissions by a school (details supplied) in County Kerry under the emergency works application and the additional school accommodation application as a child born with spina bifida and hydrocephalus has enrolled in the school for September 2016 and requires wheelchair access and due to the increased numbers of special needs children, an additional class room is urgently needed; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

I can confirm that applications for capital funding for additional accommodation has been received from the school, referred to by the Deputy. The school authority has been requested to submit revised proposals and costings for the minimum works necessary to enable the pupil, in question, enroll. As soon as this information is received and considered, the school authority will be informed of the outcome.
