View answerThe major building project referred to by the Deputy is at an advanced stage of architectural planning, Stage 2(b) which includes the application for statutory approvals and the preparation of tender documents. All statutory approvals have been secured.
Following the replacement of the consultant architect, the Design Team has reviewed the previous Stage 2b documentation and is upgrading the detail to NZEB standards. An acoustic report has been commissioned and on receipt and review of that report, the Design Team will finalise the detailed design for preparation of the tender documents.
The Design Team anticipates submitting the Stage 2b Report to my Department in January 2019. Upon receipt and review of the Stage 2b submission, my Department will revert to the Board of Management regarding the progression of the project.
