Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 November 2015
501. Deputy Alan Farrell asked the Minister for Education and Skills the status of the provision of a new, permanent building for a school (details supplied) in County Dublin; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40044/15]
View answerI can confirm that a project to provide for a new school building on a greenfield site for the school to which the Deputy refers was included in the 2012 - 2016 Construction Programme.
I can advise that my Department is working closely with Fingal County Council in relation to identifying and acquiring a suitable site for a new school building for the school in question and we continue to liaise with them in advancing this process. The technical feasibility of a preferred site option is currently being assessed. However due to the commercial sensitivities associated with land acquisitions generally, it is not possible to provide further information at this time.
