Written answers

I understand that the tender for the feasibility study has been awarded to the successful applicant and Cork County Council have issued the letter of acceptance and are awaiting its signing.

As this project originally allocated separate funding to both Cork County Council and Waterford City and County Council, a Section 85 agreement is being entered into that gives responsibility on behalf of the other county to the lead partner, in this case Cork County Council. I understand that this was agreed to at the Cork County Council meeting on June 28th and is on the agenda for the Waterford City and County Council meeting on July 8th.

The final signing of contracts will occur following the completion of that agreement. No funding has been drawn down to date. The completion of the feasibility study is expected in the first half of 2022.
