I am pleased to inform the Deputy that the building project for the school to which he refers has now been devolved for delivery to Kildare and Wicklow Education and Training Board (KWETB).

The Service Level Agreement (SLA) has been issued to KWETB. The next step is for the ETB to procure a Design Team for the project to design the buildings, obtain the necessary statutory planning permissions, and move the project onward to tender and construction in due course.

As the project is at an early stage in the delivery process, it is not possible at this time to give a date for its completion. Please be assured that the ETB will be engaging directly with the school authority to keep it informed of progress.
