Mr. John Crawley:

Correct. That is an intra-State transfer of a site that we had acquired under our area and social regeneration programme. It was to be developed as a special school. With the wind-up order on the authority, that was not something with which the authority could continue. We entered into discussions with the Department of Education and Skills, which was a better fit from the State's point of view to continue developing that site.
