As the Deputy will be aware, a building project is proposed which will facilitate the amalgamation of the schools to which he refers. Additional land is required to facilitate the development and in that context, agreement in principle has been reached with the land owner for my Department to acquire these lands. In tandem with this, my Department will progress the preparation of the accommodation brief for the building project.
