Seanad hears of "impasse" on new school building for Scoil Mhuire in Moycullen

The Seanad has heard of a "sort of impasse" on a long-planned new school building for Scoil Mhuire in Moycullen. 

Planning was approved last year for a new two story, 16 classroom build behind the existing school, with a new entrance. 

But Senator Sean Kyne has voiced concerns in the Seanad over an apparent lack of progress. 

Minister Neale Richmond said it is on a capital list to be delivered under the Government's ADAPT programme - but acknowledged progress is slow. 

And Fine Gael Senator Kyne wasn't convinced by the reply.
