To ask the Minister for Education and Science the practical work being carried out by his Department to locate a suitable permanent site for a school Gaelscoil Eiscir Riada and if he will make a statement on the matter.
Minister for Education and Science (Batt O'Keeffe, T.D.)
The school to which the Deputy refers is currently operating in temporary accommodation on a site that is in the ownership of Co. Dublin VEC. The Department is in consultation with the VEC on the possibility of using this site, together with an additional portion of VEC lands, to cater for this school's long term accommodation needs. A study has been conducted to determine the feasibility of this proposal.
The acquisition of the site for the school in question will be considered in the context of the capital budget available to my Department for school buildings generally. I am not in a position to say at this stage when the acquisition will be concluded.
