My Department has recently written to the local authority indicating that it is favourably disposed to the advancement of this project as a mixed development, to include the construction of a primary school.

To advance the project, my Department has indicated that it would be prepared to consider the early development of part of the site for sheltered and affordable housing. The local authority has been advised to submit a revised plan seeking approval to proceed to Part 8 of the planning process.
