Where significant grant aid is provided by the Department for the development of school premises on property not owned by the State, it is the policy of this Department that the investment is secured by way of a legal agreement.

Details in relation to these leases are generally held on individual property files. Therefore it is not possible to specify the number of such leases or the oldest one in existence.
