Question:

546 Mr. Sherlock asked the Minister for Education and Science if she has received notice from Cork VEC that arrangements are agreed for the purchase of a site for a school (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [33052/06]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

Cork County VEC has identified a suitable site for the new school in question. My Department has authorised the VEC to negotiate, subject (inter alia) to Contract and value for money considerations, with the vendor for the acquisition of the site. When the site purchase is complete the building project will be considered in the context of my Department's School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006-2010.
