101. Deputy Alan Dillon asked the Minister for Education if she will request her Department's planning and building unit to engage with the principal and board of management of a school (see details supplied) on the proposed additional accommodation scheme to ensure the existing general purpose (GP) room is protected for future use or an alternative GP room is provided; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

Minister for Education

I can confirm to the Deputy, that my Department approved funding under the Additional School Accommodation (ASA) scheme, for the school in question.

This project was accepted by the school authorities and it has been devolved for delivery. The design of the project, including any implications on the existing GP room, will be determined by the appointed design team in conjunction with the school authorities.
