Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I wish to advise the Deputy that provision has already been made to account for the majority of the funds realised from the sale of the property in question. My Department is currently engaged with Longford Westmeath ETB in relation to the utilisation of the balance of the funds involved for necessary capital works.
