The Property Management Section of the Office of Public Works which acts on behalf of my Department in relation to site acquisitions generally has been requested to source a site for the school in question. The OPW has liaised with the Planning Department of Limerick County Council in connection with one potential site option. I understand from OPW that the feedback from the Planning Department on that site has been negative. Simultaneously, the OPW is in active negotiations on an alternative potential site option. On completion of the site acquisition, the project will be considered in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006-2010.
