  Ms Hanafin: My Department has identified a potentially suitable c. 13 acre site for this school. Independent valuations have been received and my officials expect to be in contact with the owner’s agent shortly to commence negotiations.

When a suitable site has been secured, a building project for the school in question will be considered for progression in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006 -2010 and the National Development Plan.
