The project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved for delivery to the local Education and Training Board who is Patron of the school.

The Stage 1 stakeholders meeting was scheduled to take place in the Department's offices in December, 2017. This meeting was cancelled at the request of the Patron.

My Department is meeting with the ETB shortly to discuss the progression of a range of projects including the project in question.
