I propose to take Questions Nos. 1299 and 1388 together.

The property management section of the Office of Public Works, which acts on behalf of my Department regarding site acquisitions generally, has been requested to source a site for the provision of a new school building for Kill national school. Officials from that section expect to meet with officials in Kildare County Council shortly to discuss site options.
