​The Enterprise Refurbishment project is being implemented through the EU Interreg IV programme under the auspices of the Special EU Programmes Body (SEUPB). Following consultations with all key stakeholders, including my Department, the SEUPB recently confirmed that there is no significant risk associated with the timely completion of the project, which is on schedule for completion by the end of December.
