I propose to take Questions Nos. 459 and 463 together.

As the Deputy is aware, my Department is committed to providing permanent accommodation for the school to which he refers.

In this regard, my Department has been in contact with the school patron following consideration of the options study. The next step includes working through the detail of developing an accommodation brief for the school’s proposed permanent accommodation and my Department will be in further with the patron when this process has been finalised.

My Department has no knowledge or involvement with the various improvement works outlined and this would not be a matter for my Department.
