In July 2017 the Stage 2b (Detailed Design) for this project was approved, pending the completion of the process to carry out a shortlisting of suitably qualified building contractors and sub-contractors. The relevant shortlisting contract notices were posted to the Official Journal of the European Community (OJEU) and the Government's E-tenders website on 27 September and 8 October respectively. Tenders for this shortlist are currently being reviewed and the Prequalification process is nearing completion.
My Department anticipates that, following the tender process to appoint a Building Contractor, this project will go on site and commence construction in the first half of 2018.
