Wexford County Council is progressing the acquisition of the preferred site by way of compulsory purchase. The intention is for a portion of the site to be used to facilitate a new Wexford campus. The HEA recently received a business case from SETU outlining the proposed infrastructure. That business case will require evaluation.

Regarding SETU Waterford, final contracts for the purchase of 20.3 acres of the 37-acre Waterford Crystal site were signed on 20 November. The intention with this site acquisition is the co-location of the Waterford Crystal site with the existing Cork Road campus, which would enable SETU to consolidate its Waterford activities. The business case for the required infrastructure is being progressed.
