221. Deputy Matt Carthy asked the Minister for Education the current status of the new school construction project for a school (details supplied); if this project will proceed to tender stage; the expected timeframe for completion of the new school building; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [18665/23]
View answerA major building project for the school in question has been devolved for delivery to Cavan and Monaghan Educational Training Board (CMETB).
I am pleased to advise that CMETB was recently authorised by the Department to issue the Letter of Intent to the preferred tenderer. The Design Team is currently in the process of reviewing same and preparing documents for the Tender Report Supplement. The Department will review the Tender Report Supplement and issue approval to issue the Letter of Acceptance in due course. Once the Letter of Acceptance has issued to the contractor, the project will commence on site.
