Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 November 2004
443 Ms Enright asked the Minister for Education and Science if she will clarify her reply to Question No. 133 of 7 October 2004 in relation to the amalgamation of a school (details supplied) in County Offaly; if the original agreement to form a community college has been changed; if the amalgamation is proceeding on a green-field site as outlined by her and not on an existing site as already agreed; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [29826/04]
View answerThe status of the new school referred to by the Deputy is a community college and not a community school as inadvertently stated in my reply of 7 October last. I can also confirm that purpose-designed facilities will be provided to accommodate the new school on the site of an existing secondary school. The site is currently being acquired from the trustees of the school in question. I acknowledge that there was not sufficient clarity around that point in my earlier reply.
