I wish to advise the Deputy 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 building referred to by him. Agreement in principle, subject to contract, has been reached in relation to a suitable site and work is continuing to acquire the site. However, given the sensitivities associated with land acquisitions, I am not in a position to comment further on the proposed acquisition at this time.
