261. Deputy Neasa Hourigan asked the Minister for Education if she will provide an update on the redevelopment of a building for a school (details supplied); the timetable for the design and design development stage; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [52048/23]
View answerThe project to which the Deputy refers, is devolved for delivery to the National Development Finance Agency (NDFA). This project is part of the bundle referred to as ‘Project Liffey'
I am pleased to advise that the procurement for the design team is currently underway and is nearing completion. Following completion of the procurement process, the design team will be formally appointed to design the buildings, obtain the necessary statutory planning permissions, and progress the project to tender and construction in due course.
At this early stage of the process it is not possible to provide a timeline for completion of the project, the NDFA will be engaging directly with the school authorities to keep them informed of progress.
