Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 14 July 2022
501. Deputy Jennifer Whitmore asked the Minister for Education if she will provide an update on the provision of a site for the proposed build of a school (details supplied); if a site suitably and deliverability assessment has been carried out on any proposed sites; when a decision on a site will be made; the timeline for the provision of a new school build; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerMy Department is examining all options in determining a solution to the permanent accommodation needs of the school in question. In order to better inform these deliberations, my Department has undertaken a site identification process in the greater Bray area. The site identification process has identified one site with some potential. However to advance to negotiations, my Department is currently seeking clarification on a number of issues which would impact on the deliverability of this site in a timely manner. A technical assessment is underway on a second potential site option, which will include consultation with the Local Authority. Due to commercial sensitivities my Department cannot provide further information at this time.
