I propose to take Questions Nos. 98 and 99 together.
I can confirm to the Deputy that this school has been granted approval for two mainstream classrooms and two SET rooms under the Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme.
This project was recently granted Planning Permission from the Local Authority and Department officials have requested the school to submit a Stage 2b report to include all statutory planning approvals and an accurate pre-tender cost plan for assessment.
At this early stage, it is not possible to predict when a significant school building project of this nature will go to construction, nor when it will be completed, as progress depends upon many contingent factors that can arise.
