My Department has recently appointed consultants to commence remediation work on the school to which the Deputy refers. Their work will include all necessary inspections and surveying, preparation of tender documents, procurement of a contractor to complete the remediation works, supervision of works and hand-over of school back to the Board of Management. It is not possible at this juncture to state definitely when the remediation works will be completed. When all necessary inspections are conducted, the full scope of works identified and a methodology for undertaking the remediation works known, my Department will be in a better position to state definitely when the works are likely to be completed. My officials are liaising with the school authorities and have apprised them of progress on this issue.
