A suitable site, comprising of three separate plots of land with three separate vendors, has been identified for the provision of this school. Agreement on price and general terms (subject to Contract) has been reached in respect of each of the plots and draft Contracts are with the Chief State Solicitor's Office for completion of the conveyancing.
As all three plots are essential in order to make a viable and suitable site for the school, my Department has instructed the Chief State Solicitor's Office to finalise all outstanding matters and arrange for the signing of Contracts and closure of the sales of all three sites simultaneously. As soon as the Chief State Solicitor's Office notifies my officials that all three Contracts are ready to be signed, they will be signed without delay. When the site is complete, a building project for the school will be considered for progression in the context of my Departments School Building and Modernisation Programme.
