Officials from my Department have worked closely with officials from Wicklow County Council under the Memorandum of Understanding for the acquisition of a school site for the provision of the school referred to by the Deputy.

The conveyancing process for this site is under way. Details in respect of the site acquisition are commercially sensitive. Once the site acquisition has been concluded the project will be advanced to architectural planning. A decision in respect of the oversight of the project will be made at that stage.
