Based on current demographic trends my Department anticipates that there will be a need for a further post-primary school in Lucan in the medium term and it is in contact with South Dublin County Council regarding a site for this development.

My Department is considering the proposed site options received from South Dublin County Council in this regard. It is intended that this issue, inter alia, will be discussed by my Department with the local authority in the coming weeks and therefore I have no plans to meet the Group in question at this time.
