The project to which the Deputy refers is at an advanced stage of architectural planning.

The progression of all large scale building projects, including the project for this school will be considered in the context of my Department's Multi-Annual School Building and Modernisation Programme.

However, in light of current competing demands on the Department's capital budget, it is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the further progression of the project at this time.
