View answerThe project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved to the National Development Finance Agency (NDFA) for delivery as part of a programme of school building projects.The project is currently at Stage 2b (planning) of the architectural process. A planning application was lodged with Wicklow County Council and planning permission was granted in Quarter 4 2022.
When Stage 2b has been finalised and approved, the next stage is tendering for a contractor and then onwards to construction in due course.
The NDFA as the devolved delivery body, will continue to engage directly with the school authority to keep it informed of progress.
