As the Deputy may be aware, a project to provide permanent accommodation for the school in question is included on my Department's Capital Programme.

Officials in my Department are liaising with officials in the relevant local authority in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding in relation to the identification and acquisition of a suitable site for this school.  This process is ongoing and all parties are working to advance the process as expeditiously as possible.

While a number of site options have been identified, due to the commercial sensitivities relating to site acquisitions generally I am not in a position to provide further details about them at this time.
