Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 February 2017
306. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Education and Skills the progress in regard to the provision of the twin school project at Moyglare Road, Maynooth, County Kildare; when he expects the tenders to be approved and tested; the likely commencement date; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9895/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am pleased to be able to inform the Deputy that all aspects of the tendering process for the project to which he refers have been satisfactorily completed. The local Education and Training Board (ETB) is delivering the project and my Department gave approval to it on 27 February last to issue a Letter of Intent to award a contract to the preferred bidder. Assuming that the preferred bidder can comply with the requirements contained in that letter in relation to tax clearance, insurances, bond etc, my Department would expect the project to be on site in a few months’ time.
