Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 22 September 2015
1301. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Education and Skills when approval will be given to the upgrade and extension of a school (details supplied) in County Galway; the reason for the delay with this project; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [31582/15]
View answerI can confirm that the school referred to by the Deputy submitted an application for capital funding for an extension.
I wish to advise the Deputy that my Department has reviewed the scope of the project and has recently finalised the accommodation brief for the school in question. In that context, the project will shortly be progressed into the architectural planning process.
The next step involves the appointment of a Design Team and my officials will be in contact with the school in this regard shortly.
