Martin Heydon (Kildare South, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I raise a school issue of great importance in south Kildare. St. Paul's secondary school in Monasterevin has a major school building project, of which the Minister will be aware, as I have raised the matter with him since he took up office. As you will be well aware, a Cheann Comhairle, the latest delay in the project occurred in November. The project has been beset by numerous delays, not all of which have been of the Department's making. The latest delay in November was due to a legal challenge to the pre-qualification process. Teachers, parents and pupils in Monasterevin are desperate to receive assurances that the project will proceed as soon as possible. I would appreciate any update the Minister could provide for the House on this important matter.
