We will get the Deputy an exact note after the meeting and I will give her what information I have with me now. There are two bundles, the first of which is higher education PPP bundle 1. The six buildings which are being delivered by public private partnership bundle 1 are located at the Technological University Dublin campuses in Tallaght and Blanchardstown, the Munster Technological University campuses in Tralee and Cork, the Athlone campus of Technological University of the Shannon and the Institute of Art, Design and Technology in Dun Laoghaire. All projects are currently on programme and the estimate for completion is between Q4 of 2024 and Q2 of 2025.

Higher education PPP bundle 2 consists of five projects. Two projects are at the Atlantic Technological University campuses in Letterkenny and Galway, two at the SETU campuses in Waterford and Carlow and one at the Technological University of the Shannon in Limerick. Bundle 2 is currently at the tender-competitive dialogue stage and the construction price and inflation volatility in the construction market is presenting us with challenges. However, the procuring authority is working within the framework.
