I can confirm for the Deputy that the school and its design team have not yet submitted the report to my Department. My Department has contacted the Design Team Leader directly and has been informed that the design team QS is currently in the process of completing the Bill of Quantities and the Stage 2(b) cost plan.   The stage 2(b) report will then be submitted by the Design Team to my Department for review.

Upon receipt and review of this outstanding documentation the Department will revert to the Board of Management with regard to the further progression of the project at that time.

My Department has not yet received a Stage 2B submission for the project to which the Deputy refers.

As soon as the Stage 2b submission is received it will be reviewed. On completion of the review my Department will revert to the school authority with a timeframe to proceed to tender and construction.

As the Deputy is aware, a building project for the school to which she refers was included in my Department's 6-Year Construction Programme. Following the site visit which has been undertaken, my Department will formulate a schedule of accommodation for the proposed project. My Department will be in further contact with the school when this element has been completed.
