Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 15 December 2005
312 Mr. F. McGrath asked the Minister for Education and Science the position regarding the request for a new school (details supplied) in Dublin; and if support will be given to the parents and pupils. [39717/05]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department is fully aware of the need to provide permanent accommodation for the school to which he refers. Its preferred option in this regard is the use of an existing building. To achieve this, it commenced amalgamation discussions with existing schools in the area. These discussions have now been completed and I am pleased to inform the Deputy that the schools involved have agreed to amalgamate. This will result in a vacant building. My Department is now working to acquire this building to accommodate the school in question.
