Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 30 June 2020
236. Deputy Paul Donnelly asked the Minister for Education and Skills the time frame of the building of five prefabs for a school (details supplied) which were due to be finished by September 2020 but have been delayed by the Covid-19 restrictions. [13574/20]
View answerI can confirm that in relation to the school to which the Deputy refers, a contract is due to be awarded this week (commencing 29th June, 2020) for the additional interim accommodation required for the school for the next academic year. However, a decision in relation to planning permission for this additional accommodation is still awaited. It should be noted that these delays are related due to the Covid-19 restrictions.
My Department is in contact with the school Principal and the Patron Body in relation to the matter.
