I can confirm that in relation to the school to which the Deputy refers, a contract is due to be awarded this week (commencing 29^thJune, 2020) for the additional interim accommodation required for the school for the next academic year.  However, a decision in relation to planning permission for this additional accommodation is still awaited.  It should be noted that these delays are related due to the Covid-19 restrictions.

My Department is in contact with the school Principal and the Patron Body in relation to the matter.
