As the Deputy may be aware, my Department has given approval to the Patron of the school in question to appoint a consultant to undertake an Options Study of the proposed property to meet the school's permanent accommodation needs. This Study, when available, will be used as a basis for determining the necessary refurbishment works required to the property.

In the interim, my Department has approved funding to the patron to undertake refurbishment works in the property to facilitate the school's access to additional specialist accommodation. The project has been devolved to the patron for delivery.
