Written answers

As the Deputy is aware, officials from my Department are in negotiations with a landowner in respect of the acquisition of a suitable site for the Curragh Post Primary school. Officials from my Department continue to work closely with Officials from Kildare County Council in order to progress the acquisition of the site.

I am unable to provide any further information at this stage due to commercial sensitivities related to the site acquisition.

Once a suitable site has been acquired, my Department will then be in a position to progress the project into the architectural planning process. At this early stage in the delivery process, it is not possible to give a construction timeline.

Please rest assured that this project is being given priority attention and we are attempting to bring the matter to a close as soon as possible.
