The Deputy may be aware that the project to which he refers was tendered in 2009 and a preferred bidder (contractor) was identified to do the works. Unfortunately, a number of issues outside my Department's control delayed the progression of this project. However, I am pleased to inform the Deputy that most of these issues have now been resolved. Provided there are no further issues, it is intended that the project will be re-tendered in the coming months and could therefore be in a position to progress to construction in late 2012.
