The property management section of the Office of Public Works, is acting on behalf of my Department with regard to the acquisition of a site for the school referred to by the Deputy. In the course of its duties that office would make contact with the town council. Seven sites are currently under consideration as a location for this particular school.

Due to the commercial sensitivities of site acquisitions, no details are being released at present. When a site has been secured further detail will be provided.
