As you will be aware, the Chief State Solicitors Office, on behalf of my Department, has been engaging with the property owners’ legal representative on the draft lease for some time and the vast majority of the clauses in the draft lease are agreed.
My Department has also engaged directly with the property owners’ legal representative with a view to facilitating agreement on the small few outstanding terms of the draft lease, so that the lease can be progressed.
To address the outstanding terms of the draft lease my Department arranged for a schedule of condition report on the existing building from the school’s architect. This report has been received and is under consideration by my Department.
