View answerI am pleased to inform the Deputy that the project to which he refers has been devolved to Galway & Roscommon Education and Training Board (GRETB) for delivery.
I can confirm that a design team to deliver this project was appointed in March 2021, and GRETB, through this design team, is now preparing the Stage 1 report (preliminary design).
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. GRETB will be engaging directly with the school authorities to keep them informed of progress.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Galway & Roscommon ETB for its ongoing management and delivery of this campus project. This project will involve a very significant investment in the provision of new and very modern school facilities in Athenry and is very welcome.
