  131. Ms O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Education and Science when he will sanction a temporary replacement building for Ennis educate together national school, Ennis, County Clare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26927/02]

  Minister for Education and Science (Mr. N. Dempsey): My Department authorised the school authorities, subject to certain conditions, to prepare revised tender documentation for the proposed provision of improved temporary accommodation.

  When this documentation is completed by the school's consultant architect the project will be considered further in the light of the available funds in 2003 for such projects. In the meantime the school's board of management should use their devolved grant to deal with any urgent health and safety works.
