A major project to provide permanent accommodation for the school referred to by the Deputy, is included in my Department’s 5 year School Building Programme to proceed to construction in the years 2015/2016.

In line with the arrangements in place under the Memorandum of Understanding on acquisition of school sites for school planning purposes, my Department is working closely with Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council towards acquiring a permanent site for the school referred to by the Deputy. Due to the
sensitivities associated with land acquisitions generally I am not in a position to provide further information at this time.
