The Deputy will be aware that a building project for the school to which he refers is included in my Department's Capital Programme.

My Department is currently finalising the project brief with a view to progressing the project into the architectural planning process. The brief is expected to be completed shortly and my Department will be in further contact with the patron when this process has been completed.

The project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved for delivery to the local Education and Training Board (ETB).

Under this arrangement, the ETB has appointed a Design Team for the project to design the buildings, obtain the necessary statutory planning permissions and move the project forward to construction in due course.
