Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

The project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved to the local Education and Training Board (ETB) for delivery.

The contractor for the project has entered Examinership and was not prepared to complete the works.  Consequently, the ETB terminated the contract.  Arrangements are currently being made to draw up a scope of works for tenders to finish out the contract.
