Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I can confirm to the Deputy that my Department received an application from the school referred to for additional accommodation to provide classrooms, specialist rooms and ancillary accommodation.

The process of assessing the application is currently being finalised and my Department will be in contact with the school authority in the matter shortly.
