Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 June 2016
172. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Education and Skills when a school (details supplied) is scheduled to be extended and the estimated time for completion; the extent of the intended project; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14333/16]
View answerThe school referred to by the Deputy is included on the six year programme announced on 17th November 2015 and is listed to proceed to tender and construction in 2017.
A Project Manager and Design Team have been appointed for the project and it is currently at Stage 1 of Architectural Planning, which is the initial sketch design stage. My Department officials met recently with the Board of Management and their Design Team to review the Pre Stage 1 report. A further meeting is currently being scheduled to progress the project through to completion of Stage 1.
Upon successful completion of Stage 1 and subject to no issues arising the project will be authorised to proceed to Stage 2a, which is the developed design stage.
