485. Deputy Cormac Devlin asked the Minister for Education the status efforts by her Department in securing a permanent site for a school (details supplied) as per previous correspondence; the number of meetings that have been held between her Department and the local council regarding this issue since 2018; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [11821/21]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department remains committed to providing permanent accommodation to meet the needs of the school to which the Deputy refers.
As the Deputy is aware, officials in my Department have been actively engaging with officials from Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council via emails, phone calls and through online meeting platforms. As a result, the acquisition of this site has progressed well in recent weeks on the two preferred site options identified.
My officials are keeping the School Patron appraised of developments.
Once my officials achieve agreement in principle on the final site, the Patron will be advised of the location without delay.
