40. Deputy Alan Farrell asked the Minister for Education and Skills the action he is taking to deliver a permanent site and building for a school (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [49338/18]
View answerI am pleased to inform the Deputy that, with the assistance of officials in Fingal County Council, agreement in principle has been reached with the landowner in respect of the acquisition of a site at Broomfield, Malahide to accommodate Malahide Portmarnock Educate Together NS.
The schedule of accommodation and brief in respect of the building project has been finalised and the project will now be progressed into Architectural Planning. The urgency attached to this project is recognised by my Department and in that context it is intended that it will be delivered as part of my Department’s Design and Build Programme.
In the interim, work will continue to complete the transfer of the site into my Department's ownership.
