83. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if her Department will move with all alacrity on the matter of a school (details supplied), given the long delays are having a major, negative impact on the school itself, the students attending and the position of An Ghaeilge culturally and linguistically within society and the education system; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The project referred to by the Deputy is a priority for my Department and it is our intention to progress the accommodation brief for this school as quickly as possible.

In the interim, my Department has been working with the school patron to ensure that there is sufficient accommodation in place to meet the interim needs of the school, pending the delivery of the main project.

Key priorities for my Department's work programme include continuing strong delivery to support the operation of the school system with particular regard to planning ahead for the 2023/24 school year and beyond and also with particular regard to supporting special needs provision.
