A site has been identified for the school in question and while there are a small number of issues outstanding, these are currently being addressed and are expected to be resolved shortly. Meanwhile, in order to expedite the design process, my Department is replicating an existing design, which has been successfully completed in another location. This should allow for the project to proceed to construction as soon as possible.
