I am pleased to inform the Deputy that the project at the school to which he refers was included in my recent announcement of 43 projects to proceed to tender and construction in 2009. A building contractor has not yet been appointed as the project is still progressing towards tender stage. The contract notice seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified contractors has been published on the public procurement portal www.etenders.gov.ie. Until the project has been tendered and a contract put in place, it will not be possible to provide the other details requested by the Deputy.

My Department has recently received the revised Stage 2B submission from the Design Team which is being examined by my Officials. Stage 2B which includes the detailed design and bill of quantities for the project is the precursor to tender stage. My Department will inform the school authorities of further progress once the Stage 2B submission has been approved.
