The Deputy will be aware that my officials have been working closely with officials from Kildare County Council in relation to acquiring a suitable site for the proposed new school accommodation for the school to which the Deputy refers. Work is continuing to acquire an identified site and as previously advised, agreement in principle, subject to contract, has been reached. Given the sensitivities associated with land acquisitions generally, I am not in a position to comment further on the proposed acquisition at this time.
