As the Deputy will be aware, a project is in train to deliver a new school building for the school to which she refers. This project is currently at Stage 2b. The school is operating in rental accommodation pending completion of this project.
My Department seeks to maximise Value for Money in all rental arrangements and works to ensure that the best possible price is negotiated. In that context, the disclosure of information about current rental agreements can compromise the achievement of VfM in current and future negotiations. For that that reason of commercial sensitivity, my Department is not in a position to provide information regarding the annual rental costs for the school at this point in time.
