The project referred to by the Deputy is listed to proceed to tender and construction over the next 12 to 15 months. My Department's building unit arranged a general information meeting for all schools at this stage to guide them through the process involved in moving projects to tender and construction. The meeting took place on 1 February in Tullamore and representatives from the school in question attended.
The school in question was recently authorised to apply for planning permission and fire certification and to request its design team to draw up tender documentation. When these tasks are completed, my Department will be in contact with the school on the proceeding to tender and construction of the project.
