Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 October 2018
234. Deputy Brendan Ryan asked the Minister for Education and Skills if his attention has been drawn to capacity problems in a school (details supplied) with demand currently exceeding capacity; his plans to address this; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [42324/18]
View answerI can confirm to the Deputy that my Department received an application from the school referred to for additional accommodation.
In that regard, my Department has requested additional information from the relevant Education and Training Board. Once received my Department will carry out a technical site visit at the school to determine the works required.
In the interim, my Department has approved temporary accommodation to meet the immediate needs of the school.
