My Department has not received any proposals in recent years for the provision of a girls secondary school in the Ballybough — North Strand — East Wall area. If an application is received it will be given full consideration. However, I should point out that the existing post primary schools in the general area and the proposed new north inner city vocational school will between them have sufficient accommodation to serve the needs of the pupils in question.
