Written Answers. - Facilities at National College of Art and Design.

145. Mr. Creed asked the Minister for Education if her attention has been drawn to the inadequate canteen and sports facilities at the National College of Art and Design; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Minister for Education (Ms Bhreathnach): It is recognised that there are some inadequate facilities at the National College of Art and Design. With a view to improving the situation provision has been made for a Phase 3 development at the college in my Department's submission to the European Union for funding under the European Regional Development Fund programme 1994-99.

While the proposal is not specifically targeted at the provision of canteen and sport facilities the development when completed will contribute greatly towards resolving the college's space problems.
