I wish to advise the Deputy that County Cork Vocational Education Committee signed contracts earlier this year for the purchase of a site to provide for an educational campus facility to cater for, among other things, the re-location of the Gaelscoil referred to by the Deputy. My Department was not a party to the contract negotiations or to any special conditions agreed. The progression of the building element of this proposal will be considered in the context of the capital budget available to my Department for school buildings generally.
