I am pleased to inform the Deputy that I have included the building project for the school in question in my recently announced list of school projects to be progressed through architectural planning in 2005. The building project is at advanced stage of architectural planning stage 4 to 5, that is, detail design and bill of quantities. The stage submission is currently with the Department and will be assessed by the Department's staff in due course. When this analysis is complete, the school building section will be in contact with the school authorities. A decision on which school building projects will advance to tender and construction as part of the 2006 schools building and modernisation programme will be taken later in the year.
