A project for the school referred to by the Deputy is currently at an advanced stage of architectural planning. The design team are currently working on completing a revised stage 2(b) submission which will be submitted to my Department for technical review. The school have recently advised my Department that the design team anticipate forwarding the submission later this month.

Following receipt and review of the stage 2(b) submission, the further progression of this project will be considered in the context of my Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme for 2011 and subsequent years.

However, it is not possible to give a more indicative timeframe for the progression of the project to tender and construction at this time.
