As the Deputy will be aware, the project to which she refers has been devolved for delivery to the local Education and Training Board (ETB).

The ETB has confirmed that the Stage 2B documents are complete except for those in relation to the diversion of overhead power lines traversing the site.  The ETB and the Design Team are actively pursuing this issue with ESBI.  When this matter is resolved, this will enable the submission of the Stage 2B report to my Department for consideration.
