View answerThe project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved to the National Development Finance Agency (NDFA) for delivery. This school is in the bundle referred to as ‘Project Dargle’.This project has progressed through the early stages of the architectural planning process and the statutory planning application was submitted to Wicklow County Council in Q1 2023. Once the statutory planning permission has been obtained, the Design Team will be responsible for developing the project such that it can be approved to progress to tender and construction stages in due course.
At this early stage, it is not possible to provide a timeline for the project; the NDFA will be engaging directly with the school authorities to keep them informed of progress.
