The school to which the Deputy refers to was approved funding under the Additional Accommodation Scheme (ASA) in order to provide three Special Education Teaching rooms. The project is devolved for delivery to the school authority who appointed a Design Team to manage the project.
A Tender Report was received by my Department in December 2022 and upon review the Department agreed with the school’s Design Team’s recommendation to have the project retendered.
A new Tender Report was completed and recently submitted to my Department. This submission was reviewed by officials and additional information and clarification was requested in order to progress the project. Once this information is provided, the project will be assessed in full and a response issued to the school.
