221. Deputy Thomas Byrne asked the Minister for Education and Skills if a purchase has been completed for a site for a school (details supplied). [37456/16]
View answerOfficials from my Department have worked closely with officials from Meath County Council under the Memorandum of Understanding for the acquisition of a school site for the provision of permanent accommodation for the school referred to by the Deputy.
I can confirm that agreement in principle has been reached with a landowner in respect of a site to accommodate the school. The next stage in the acquisition process is the completion of the conveyancing process. Officials in my Department are liaising with representatives of the landowner in order to progress the acquisition through this stage.
The school patron will be informed as soon as the acquisition is complete.
