167. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Education and Skills to outline the progress in providing permanent accommodation for the Educate Together school in Claregalway in County Galway; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [3334/16]
View answerMy Department has confirmed the need for a new school building to be provided for the school referred to by the Deputy and in that regard a Major Capital Building Project for the school has been included in the 6 Year Construction Programme. I can advise that officials in the Department are currently working closely with officials from Galway County Council in relation to the acquisition of a suitable site to facilitate the provision of a new school building for the school in question. I can also confirm that the site acquisition process is ongoing. However due to the commercially sensitive nature of site acquisitions generally, my Department is not in a position to provide any further details at this time.
