Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Briefing on Current and Future Plans for the School Building Unit: Department of Education
Mr. Hubert Loftus:
In fairness, it depends on the local area and the particular pressures. With the strategic development zones and all of that, we have a pipeline. Back in 2018, we announced a cohort of new schools to be delivered, some of which have not yet been delivered in terms of being established. In essence, that is because the related housing that was intended to be in place in 2021 or 2022 has not yet happened. That cohort of schools will be coming through but it will happen over time, to align with the housing developments.
