685. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the reason his Department will not give a school (details supplied) in County Mayo permission to proceed to construction for a modular classroom in view of the numbers in this school and the fact that this school will have not adequate accommodation for its pupils in September and also in view of the fact that this matter has been ongoing for at least a year; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

I am pleased to advise the Deputy that approval under the Additional School Accommodation scheme has issued to the school in question for the provision of one general classroom and one Special Education Tuition room under my Department's Modular Accommodation Framework.

The School Authority has overall responsibility for delivery of the project. My Department is fully aware of the urgency in respect of same and will be working with the school on overall project delivery and timelines.
