As the Deputy is aware, a project has been included on my Department’s Capital Programme to provide permanent accommodation for the school referred to. 

In order to progress this project, a new site is required. In this regard, officials in Sligo County Council are working under the Memorandum of Understanding for the acquisition of school sites to secure a site for the school.When a suitable site is identified and agreed for purchase, the project can advance into architectural planning. 

I can assure the Deputy that my Department is making every effort to progress the site acquisition.
