I wish to advise that nine of the newly established schools as referred to by the Deputy are currently in interim temporary accommodation. Of these, permanent buildings are currently under construction for three of the schools. In the case of the remaining six schools, sites have recently been acquired for two of the schools and the acquisition process is currently in train to secure sites for the other four schools.
