I wish to advise the Deputy that it is intended that the school in question will relocate to an existing building currently occupied on an interim basis by another school while awaiting the construction of a building project for that school.
In this regard, the building project for that school is currently at an advanced stage of architectural planning Stage 2(b) Detailed Design. A revised Stage 2(b) report incorporating a previously approved Brief Change Request has been submitted and reviewed by my Department. Comments were subsequently issued to the Design Team who are currently carrying out a final review of all tender documents. As soon as this final review is complete, the Design Team will submit confirmations to my Department. The pre-qualification process to select a shortlist of contractors has been completed. Upon receipt of Design Team confirmations, my Department will be in contact with the school regarding the further progression of the project at that time.
