1041. Deputy Ged Nash asked the Minister for Education when construction work on a proposed school (details supplied) will commence; the timeline for completion of same; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [39763/22]
View answerA major building project for the school in question has been devolved for delivery to Louth County Council.
There were some issue including a design issue, that arose in respect of this project. This included how best to incorporate a revised Schedule of Accommodation which included an upgrade to a 4 Class SEN Base. Agreement on the best way forward was reached following discussions with Louth County Council, the Design Team and the school. The Tender short-list for this project has now been confirmed. Tender documentation issued and was recently received by my Department. Following a review of the Tender Assessment Report and in the absence of any further issues for resolution, construction will commence on-site.
