Question:312 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Education if she will sanction the Kildare Teachers Centre, which has the unanimous support of the members of Kildare County Council; if the necessary finance will be available in 1995 in view of the extra demand arising from the increased population in the area and the geographical location of the centre serving a 1,200 teacher catchment area; the criteria to be applied in the determination of the location of such centres nationally; if her attention has been drawn to the fact that the Kildare Centre is already functioning on a voluntary basis; if she has received a submission from the group setting out the requirements of the centre; if she will respond favourably to this request; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
