Over recent years there have been a number of school building projects which have encountered delays due to insolvency of the main contractor. However, none of these projects were ended or abandoned and all were completed or are in the process of being completed. Details in respect of these projects are contained in the table.
As most of these projects have yet to close the final account, the final cost in respect of each project is not available at this time.
