My Department's current public private partnership, PPP, pilot programme, which has been under way for some time, consists of a bundle of five post-primary schools, a new school of music and a new national maritime college. Under the public private partnership model of procurement, consortia bid for projects on a design, build, finance and operate/maintain basis. As indicated in my reply to the Deputy on Wednesday, 20 March, the school referred to is being refurbished and extended as part of the Government's capital programme. As the design and architectural process for the project has already commenced, it is not possible to include it with any further projects being considered under my Department's PPP pilot programme.
