Ceist:

159. Deputy Maurice Quinlivan asked the Minister for Education and Skills if his attention has been drawn to the fact that two ASD units at a school (details supplied) have been sanctioned by the National Council For Special Education and are scheduled to open in September 2020, yet the application for the building of these units is still under assessment and no construction has been commenced; the status and timeframe for the project; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Minister for Education and Skills

I can confirm that my Department is in receipt of an application for additional school accommodation from the school referred to by the Deputy. Once the assessment process has been completed the school authority will be contacted directly with a decision.
