Amharc ar fhreagraIn order to ensure adequate school place provision, my Department engages with the statutory planning process and seeks to reserve suitably located sites for future educational requirements based on population projections of an area. In regard to the site to which the Deputy refers, it is situated in an area that has experienced significant population growth due to development in recent years and development is still ongoing. My Department seeks to maintain the educational reservation on this site so that it could be capable of meeting the future educational requirements of the area as they materialise.
