This matter, which I have raised previously, concerns the need for new accommodation for St. Andrew's national school in Lucan. The Department of Education and Science accepts the school needs a new school building because the present building is not suitable. It is old, has limited capacity for increasing accommodation and is not an appropriate site for expansion. When I raised the issue previously, the Minister seemed to accept the need for new accommodation but progress is slow, despite the fact the Office of Public Works, OPW, advertised for sites before the summer. Has there been further progress?
