The two storey prefab units in question comprise 12 mainstream classrooms, 2 special education rooms, 2 administration rooms, a large common area room together with other ancillary accommodation. The cost of dismantling of the prefab units and packing for removal was €115,237. The cost of transportation of units to storage was €47,657. All figures are exclusive of VAT. The Department has not yet received figures for the cost of re-erecting the units on an alternative site but has engaged the services of a professional consultant to ensure that the Department obtains value for money for this part of the contract.
