Mary continues to work with the Save Our Hall group, the Corpus Christi Parish and the Department of Education. Mary has received an update from the Minister for Education Norma Foley.
Minister Foley confirmed that the parish is making the hall available to the Corpus Christi GNS without the need for the Department to become involved in the ownership of it, stating that “any use of the hall as a community space is currently a matter for the parish”, that “the hall will ultimately form part of the overall school property” and ” in such circumstances, any use by the community in future will be a matter for the school’s Board of Management”.
Mary will continue to engage with the Department and will provide further updates on the hall as soon as she receives them.
