The draft area development plan for the north Dublin-east Meath-south Louth area is close to completion in the school planning section of my Department and I hope to be in a position to publish it shortly.

Following this, a public consultation process will be carried out by the Commission on School Accommodation. The commission will produce a final area development plan shortly thereafter. This plan will provide a blueprint for educational provision in the area for the next decade against which all capital funding decisions will be made.
