My Department's post primary building unit has received applications for emergency works in respect of roof repair and heating at Ard Scoil Eanna, Crumlin, Dublin 12.
The position in respect of these applications is as follows: tender documents have been requested by my Department for the emergency roofing works. With regard to the heating system, my Department's post-primary building unit is currently awaiting a report from the school's design team outlining details of the works required and an estimated budget. Grant aid was sanctioned in order to maintain the heating system during the current school year. However, the school was informed that this was only a temporary solution. A full refurbishment will need to be carried out at the school.
With regard to the current building project, the school authorities have been instructed to submit their stage 4 and 5 documentation, including tender documents, which my Department's post primary building unit is still awaiting. Until this documentation is received it is not possible to give a clear indication when construction will commence.
