I thank the Minister of State. I would appreciate if he could get me more information specifically on this. I appreciate the response. I understand that 105 school building projects are being brought to construction or tender in 2026-27. I hope with the priority of St. Francis School that it will be moved forward as quickly as possible and that we are not looking at summer 2027 to start building. I would love if the Minister of State could come back to me with updated information.

I understand everything has to go through all the processes to make sure we adhere to all the standards with the planning. This is long awaited and long overdue, so I would welcome the introduction of the construction phase.
