The building project referred to by the Deputy was included in the 5 year construction programme announced in March and is scheduled to commence construction in 2013.
The stage 2(b) submission was recently approved by my Department and will shortly progress to tender and then construction.
However, until the project has been tendered and a contractor appointed it will not be possible to give a definitive date for the opening of the unit.
