The project to which the Deputy refers is included in my Department's five year building programme to proceed to Tender and Construction in 2015/16.

The Design Team has been appointed and are working on the early stages of architectural planning. The Design Team are currently finalising their stage 2A report for submission to the Department. Upon successful completion of Stage 2A and subject to no issues arising, the project will then be authorised to complete Stage 2B, which includes the application for Statutory Approvals and the preparation of Tender Documents.

The building project for the school to which the Deputy refers is currently at an advanced stage of architectural planning. Planning permission was granted by the Local Authority. However, that planning permission has been appealed to An Bord Pleanála by a third party. My Department must await the outcome of this appeal before progressing the building project further.
