HC Deb 28 October 2002 vol 391 cc511-2W
Iris Robinson

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when the South Eastern Education and Library Board made application to the Chancery Court in connection with the status of the former Castle Gardens Primary School building in Newtownards; and when the ruling by the Chancery Court is expected. [77077]

Jane Kennedy

As the South-Eastern Education and Library Board wishes to retain these premises for alternative educational purposes, it has obtained advice of senior legal Counsel about this matter. Acting on this advice, the Board has made contact with Charities Branch, DHSSPS, with a view to the Board being appointed as new trustee in place of previous trustees. The application to the Chancery Court depends upon the outcome of this process.
