As the Deputy may be aware, a project to provide permanent accommodation for the school in question is included on my Department's Capital Programme.
Officials in my Department are liaising with officials in the relevant local authority in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding in relation to the identification and acquisition of a suitable site for this school. This process has proven to be quite challenging given the scarcity of suitable sites and in that context has taken some time to date. However, I would like to assure the Deputy that all parties are working to progress matters as expeditiously as possible.
