Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

As the Deputy is aware the building project for the school in question is included on my Department's capital programme.

I am pleased to inform you the acquisition of a reserved school site at Kenure, Rush, Co. Dublin, has closed.

This site will act as the permanent location for both St Joseph’s Rush RN: 60343T and Gael Scoil Ros Eo RN: 20334R as a campus arrangement.

The building project can now progress to architectural planning stage.
