  545. Ms Enright asked the Minister for Education and Science the way in which the principal and board of management of a school (details supplied) in County Donegal can progress their application from band three rating; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [31709/05]

[452]   Ms Hanafin: An application for a general purpose room and ancillary accommodation has been received from the management authorities of the school referred to by the Deputy. The application was assessed in accordance with the published prioritisation criteria, which was revised last year following consultation with the education partners. In general a band three rating is applied to projects such as this one, where there is no deficit of mainstream classroom accommodation at the school. The project is being considered in the context of the 2005-09 school building and modernisation programme.
