Minister for Education and Skills

My Department officials and representatives of the Dublin Archdiocese and of the local parish have agreed that the property to which the Deputy refers will be made available to the Department for educational use. My officials are continuing to work closely with the Archdiocesan authorities on the practicalities of the property issues involved and work is well advanced in this regard.

Question No. 436 withdrawn.
