268. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills further to Parliamentary Question No. 276 of 21 March 2017, the reason his Department is apparently unaware that Cavan and Monaghan Education and Training Board has determined the future use of the Dún Uí Neill barracks site in Cavan town; if he will re-examine his answer to Parliamentary Question No. 276 of 21 March and provide a more comprehensive response; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

My Department was in contact with Cavan and Monaghan Education and Training Board in relation to this matter when the initial parliamentary question was asked on 21 March 2017 and also in relation to this follow-up parliamentary question.

As outlined in my reply to Dail question 276 of 21 March 2017, my Department understands that the ETB is currently considering various options in relation to the long term future use of the accommodation facilities available on the Barrack’s site and has not already determined the future use of the Dún Uí Neill barracks site in Cavan town.

My Department expects that the ETB will be in contact with my Department when it has advanced its consideration of the matter.
