The property management section of the Office of Public Works, which acts on behalf of my Department in relation to site acquisitions generally, is continuing to explore the possibility of acquiring a site for the school referred to by the Deputy.

The technical suitability of a number of potential sites is being assessed at present and I expect that my Department and the Office of Public Works will be in a position to progress the matter further in the near future.
