Amharc ar fhreagraThe delivery of the projects referred to by the Deputy has been devolved to Kildare and Wicklow Education and Training Board (KWETB).
KWETB, their design team and officials from my Department’s Planning and Building Unit are working closely to ensure that a new contractor is appointed as quickly as possible to complete both schools. An eTender's notice has been forwarded to eTenders for publication seeking expressions of interest from contractors wishing to be considered for the completion of the project. The notice will be published later this week. Identification of all outstanding works necessary to complete both schools is also ongoing.
