Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 5 May 2016
107. Deputy Catherine Connolly asked the Minister for Education and Skills if the proposed school for Claregalway Educate Together in County Galway will be built on a site, given her previous confirmation that her Department acquired ten acres of land on this site to provide for educational purposes; and the status of this construction project. [9292/16]
View answerAs the Deputy is aware, my Department acquired 10 acres of land in the Claregalway area in 2014 to provide for educational purposes. This is in addition to lands acquired in the area by the GRETB (Galway Roscommon Education & Training Board).
My Department is currently formulating the Schedule of Accommodation and the Brief for the project and has informed the school authority that the new school will be provided on that campus in conjunction with the final phase of building for the Post-Primary school. In that regard, my Department will be in further contact with the school authority shortly.
