Minister for Education Batt O’Keeffe says it not possible, in light of current economic demands to give a timeframe on the construction of two schools in north Kerry.
Scoil Eoin in Balloonagh, the largest primary school in the county and Blennerville national school were given assurances for funding by the then Minister for Education, Mary Hanafin.
However three years later no refurbishment or construction has taken place at either school.
Deputy Martin Ferris, who raised the issue with Minister O’Keeffe says Kerry is being marginalised by this government.

A new strategy for the Bed & Breakfast sector of the tourism industry is being introduced by Fáilte Ireland.
It will include a new system of grading and classification - and a new brand.
Details of the changes will be presented by Fáilte Ireland personnel at a series of workshops around the country this month.
The Kerry workshop will take place in the Brehon Hotel in Killarney on 17th of February at 7pm.
