264. Deputy Michael Moynihan asked the Minister for Education and Skills the status of a proposed new primary school in Kanturk, County Cork; when this project will progress to construction stage; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30755/18]
View answerThe project to which the Deputy refers is being delivered by the Office of Public Works (OPW). The OPW recently finalised work with ESBI on the undergrounding of electrical cables. The OPW tendered these works and have now issued a letter of intent to award a contract to the preferred bidder. The works are expected to commence in the coming weeks and will take six months. On this basis, it is anticipated that the main construction project will commence in quarter one of 2019.
