The major building project referred to by the Deputy is currently at an advanced stage of architectural planning, Stage 2b – Detailed Design, which includes the applications for Planning Permission, Fire Cert and Disability Access Cert and the preparation of tender documents. All statutory approvals have been obtained.

The Design Team have completed the pre-qualification process. It is currently anticipated that the project to which the Deputy refers will progress to tender stage later this year, with construction commencing early in 2021.

A tender stage normally takes between 7 and 8 months to complete.
