81. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills when Gaelscoil Phádraig will gain access to Archbishop Mc Quaid national school in Loughlinstown, which was allocated to it in 2005 by his Department; if he will ensure that Ballyowen Meadows Special School moves to its new premises without delay; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I wish to advise the Deputy that it is my Department's intention to provide improved accommodation for Gaelscoil Phádraig in the building currently occupied by Ballyowen Meadows Special School. This building will be vacated following the completion of the building project to construct a new school for Ballyowen Meadows. Planning Permission for the new Ballyowen Meadows school project was lodged with the local authority in March and a decision is due at the end of July. The building project is listed on the Five Year Construction Programme announced in 2012 and is at an advanced stage of the architectural planning process. Subject to no issues arising, it is expected that the project will proceed to construction in late 2014/early 2015.
