Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 April 2015
584. Deputy Gerry Adams asked the Minister for Education and Skills if she is aware of the proposed demolition of the existing Duleek national school buildings to make way for the new build under way; if the use of these buildings for much needed community purposes has been considered; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerThe delivery of the two new primary school buildings in Duleek have been devolved to the National Development Finance Agency (NDFA). Construction of both schools commenced in February 2014. In order to comply with the grant of planning permission and to facilitate the provision of a traffic management system for both new schools it is necessary to demolish the existing buildings on site. It is also proposed to provide a playing pitch in the remaining area which will be of significant benefit to both schools.
