Amharc ar fhreagraThe major building project for the school to which the Deputy refers is at an advanced stage of architectural planning – Stage 2b, which includes the applications for Planning Permission, Fire Cert, Disability Access Cert and the preparation of Tender Documents.
The school are currently awaiting the completion of the transfer of land from a third party which is required for access and set-down. Until the issue of the land transfer is finalised, the school and its design team cannot complete their stage 2(b) submission and the Department cannot provide a timescale of the progression of this project to tender and construction stages.
