Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

The property management section of the Office of Public Works, which acts on behalf of my Department in site acquisitions generally, has identified a suitable site for Blennerville national school. The OPW is now progressing the acquisition of the site in question. The question of the provision of the new school building will be considered further in the context of the multi-annual school building programme when the site has been acquired.
