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

I am pleased to be able to inform the Deputy that completion of the envelope of the two school buildings will commence shortly as part of an arrangement with the Bondsman.  This welcome development will weather the buildings and form a neat finish-out package for a new main contractor.  That package will be tendered to contractors that have been pre-qualified by the Design Team shortly.  The completion date for the project is June 2020 and the Design Team’s programme to achieve this is on track.
