345. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the progress made on the site identified for the permanent building for a school (details supplied) on the Novara road campus in view of the urgency of the situation that the school now finds itself in; when construction of the new building is due to commence; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Deputy will be aware that a major capital project for the provision of permanent accommodation for the school in question is being addressed through my Department's Capital Programme.

It is envisaged that permanent accommodation for the school will be provided through a campus arrangement with a local Institute of Further Education on its current site. This project will also include the redevelopment and provision of enhanced accommodation for the Institute. In the context of initiating architectural planning for the project, my Department is liaising with the relevant Education and Training Board and will be in further contact with the school's Parton in this regard.
