The position is that my Department has agreed in principle to provide a site at the Defence Forces training centre to permit the construction of a new post-primary school. The Department of Education and Science has not sought a meeting with my Department in relation to the matter.

I have no proposals at present to change the status of Castlebar military barracks which is mainly a Reserve Defence Force facility.
