The proposed refurbishment and extension project for the School referred to by the Deputy is at an early stage of architectural planning.
The project was approved to proceed to Stage 3 (Developed Sketch Scheme) of Architectural Planning in September 2006. Officials from my Department will be in further contact with the school authorities when the Stage 3 documentation has been received and evaluated.
I am pleased to inform the Deputy that this project is one of 22 major post-primary school building projects that I recently announced to proceed, following completion of the architectural design process, to tender and construction.
