I am pleased to inform the Deputy that the building project for the school to which he refers is being devolved for delivery to the School Authority with the assistance of Waterford and Wexford Education and Training Board (WWETB).

My Department will engage with the School Authority to put in place a Service Level Agreement (SLA) which is the next step in progressing the project.

Once the SLA is in place, the School Authority will procure a design team for the project to design the building, obtain the necessary statutory planning permission and move the project onward to construction in due course. As the project is at an early stage in the delivery process, it is not possible at this time to give a date for its completion.
