I can confirm that County Cork VEC has identified a possible site to accommodate the amalgamated school referred to by the Deputy. Following assessment of the site's suitability, my Department will be in touch with County Cork VEC in relation to this matter. However, given the sensitivities associated with land acquisitions generally, I am not in a position to comment further at this point in time. The acquisition of the site and the delivery of the school building project will be considered in the context of the capital budget available to my Department for school buildings generally.
