Officials from my Department have worked closely with officials from South Dublin County Council under the Memorandum of Understanding for the acquisition of school sites towards procuring a suitable site for this building project. A suitable site has been identified and the conveyancing process in respect of this is under way.
In tandem with the site acquisition process, the design work for the schools has been advanced so the application for planning permission can be submitted as the site acquisition is closed.
Once the site has been acquired and planning permission secured, the project will then be progressed to tender and construction stages.
