The major building project referred to by the Deputy is at an advanced stage of architectural planning Stage 2b (Detailed Design), which includes the application for statutory approvals and the preparation of tender documents. A decision to grant Planning Permission and Disability Access Certificate has been secured from Kildare County Council. A decision on the Fire Safety Certificate is expected shortly.
Once all Statutory Approvals are received the Design Team will work on finalising the Stage 2b report which will be submitted through the Board of Management to my Department.
Upon receipt and review of this report my Department will revert to the Board of Management with regard to the further progression of the project at that time.
A letter issued from my Department to the Board of Management on 9 March 2018 outlining the projected timeframe for the progression of this project to tender and construction stage and the steps involved.
