The major building project to which the Deputy refers is at an advanced stage of architectural planning - Stage 2(b),which includes the applications for Planning Permission, Fire Certificate and Disability Access Certificate and the preparation of Tender Documents. All statutory approvals have been secured.

The Design team are currently completing the Stage 2(b) submission. Arising from significant changes to the Public Works Contract (PWC) introduced earlier this year, the Board of Management and their Design Team have been advised of the need to carry out further work in relation to the tender documents to bring them into line with those changes. When the Stage 2(b) report is completed and received it will be considered and the Department will then revert to the school with regard to the further progression of the project at that time.
