Amharc ar fhreagraThe major building project for the school referred to by the Deputy will be delivered under my Department's ADAPT Programme.
ADAPT is an acronym which stands for the "Accelerated Delivery of Architectural Planning and Tendering".
The ADAPT Programme uses a professional external Project Manager to co-ordinate and drive the Design Team to achieve the best possible timeframe for the project through the stages of Architectural Planning to Tender and Construction.
The tender process to appoint a Project Manager has been completed. The Project Manager is currently arranging site visits and the procurement of site surveys for all projects on this ADAPT Programme including this site in Dublin.
The process to appoint a Design Team will shortly be put in train by the Project Manager.
My Department and the Project Manager will keep the school authorities updated in relation to these appointments.
