Vol. 392 No. 1

Written Answers. - Use of School Site.

335.

asked the Minister for Education if she will give a lease for a minimum of five years to Hartstown United Football Club, Dublin 15, on her Department's site at that location having regard to the fact that any shorter lease may not justify the expenditure by that club's money in cleaning and levelling the site; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

My Department have informed the Hartstown United Football Club that it is not prepared to grant a lease for five years as it would not be in the Department's best interests to do so. It is necessary, in the case of vacant school sites, to retain the right to develop or manage the property as required, free from the constraints which such a long-term arrangement would impose.

The club has been offered the use of portion of the school site on a year-to-year basis. The response to the offer is awaited.
