Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 29 June 2021
350. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Education the status of a building project for a school (details supplied); the timescale for the commencement of same; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [34932/21]
View answerThe school referred to by the deputy has been devolved for delivery to Louth County Council.
I am pleased to advise that the project has very recently been approved by the Department to go to tender in that respect. Louth County Council is working closely with the design team for the project to ensure that the project can be tendered to a pre-qualified list of tenderers as soon as possible.
Once the tender process has been completed, and a contractor appointed, construction can be expected to begin on site.
