Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

As the Deputy will be aware, my Department intends to permanently accommodate the school to which he refers in a building which it expects to be vacated post an amalgamation of three other schools.

The Boards of Management of these schools recently sent a proposal to my Department in relation to its requirements to effect the amalgamation. This is being examined in School Planning Section and a response will issue the Boards as soon as possible. The outcome of this matter will dictate the timeframe for advancing any capital project.
