The major building project referred to by the Deputy is currently at advanced stage of Architectural Planning. The Board of Management and it's Design Team were authorised to commence Stage (2b) - Detailed Design on the 26th August 2021.
Stage 2(b) includes the applications for Planning Permission, Fire Safety Certification, Disability Access Certification and when these have been secured, the preparation of Tender Documents.
When the above steps have been completed, the Design Team will submit the Stage 2b Report and documentation for review by my Department, and subject to no issues arising from that review, my Department will then contact the Design Team and the School Authorities with regard to the further progression of the project.
