The school to which the Deputy refers was one of ten projects announced in January 2009 to be re-tendered. Following the receipt and clearance of the revised tender and associated documentation, the project was authorised to go to tender in June. Following the satisfactory resolution of some issues with the Tender Report, the Board of Management was authorised to issue a letter of intent to the preferred tenderer. The Department has recently received the Supplementary Tender Report from the School's Design Team. Upon receipt of some outstanding items, and subject to everything being in order, the Department expects to revert to the Board of Management within days, authorising it to place the contract for the building works.
