My Department have had no written communication from the County Tipperary VEC (SR) regarding the acquisition of a site for the proposed community college. However, I understand that the County Tipperary VEC (SR) recently passed a resolution to acquire a certain site, subject to my Department's approval. As soon as written details of this resolution are submitted, the matter will be considered by my Department. As this project is only at the initial stage of planning it is not possible at this time to indicate when construction work will commence.
