Question:

319. Deputy Joan Burton asked the Minister for Education and Skills the reason his officials have not yet communicated with the board of management of a school (details supplied) in County Kildare whether the school is to be a new build school project or a refurbishment project; when the position will be clarified; when a design team will be appointed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37036/17]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

As the Deputy is aware, a building project for the school to which she refers is included in my Department's 6 Year Construction Programme.

I wish to advise the Deputy that the Project Brief is currently being finalised which, once completed, will facilitate the project to be progressed into Architectural Planning, which includes the appointment of a Design Team.
