Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I thank the Deputy for raising this important issue. I know that Dublin Mid-West, not unlike my constituency of Dublin West has a rapidly growing population and therefore needs many new schools and school extensions. They are happening. I know many have already happened in Lucan, Clondalkin and Rathcoole. We have a very big school building programme with funding of over €1 billion a year. Of course, it will never be possible to build every school as quickly as we would like to, but we do have a pipeline of developments. Regarding the particular issue the Deputy raised, I will make contact with the Minister, Deputy Foley's, office and try to get a comprehensive reply as soon as possible.
