As the Deputy is aware, the Property Management Section of the Office of Public Works was requested to source a site for the new primary school at Kill, Co. Kildare. A suitable site for the new primary school at Kill, Co. Kildare has now been identified and an agreement on price, subject to contract, has been reached. The Office of Public Works is now awaiting receipt of the relevant Contract documents. It is my intention to progress the building of the school as soon as the site has been acquired.
