Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 24 March 2022
274. Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Education if a school (details supplied) that was granted a second additional accommodation devolved grant can continue with the building project with same contractor who came through a tendering process as per submission by school; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [15645/22]
View answerI can confirm to the Deputy that the school referred to has been approved for a project under my Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme 2022. This project has been devolved for delivery to the school authority and will provide for the following accommodation at the school; One Mainstream Classroom and One SET Room.
I can advise the Deputy that a proposal to combine this approval with another project that is currently onsite at the school was recently submitted to my Department for review. My officials have sent a request for further information to the school regarding this proposal and it is now a matter for the Board of Management to advance the project in that regard.
