The building project referred to by the Deputy is being delivered under my Department’s Design and Build Programme.

I am pleased to advise the Deputy that planning permission has been secured for the project and the Departments Project Management team are currently working on the preparation of the tender documents for the tender and appointment of a Contractor.

Funding for the schools capital programme under Project Ireland 2040 remains in place, and the school referred to by the Deputy remains part of the schools capital programme.
