The project to which the Deputy refers was authorised to proceed to tender in October 2016. Tenders are due back in mid-July.
Subject to no issues arising it is anticipated that construction will commence in late 2017 and the project is scheduled to take approximately 18 months to complete.
Following requests from other members of the Oireachtas, including Deputy Alan Farrell and Senator James Reilly, to arrange a meeting with representatives of the school, I have requested my staff to contact the Deputies and the school authority, Dublin-Dunlaoghaire ETB to arrange such a meeting. I have requested that the ETB, the school and all Deputies in the area will be invited to the meeting to discuss the progress of this project.
