As the Deputy is aware, the delivery of the project referred to has been devolved to Kildare and Wicklow Education and Training Board.

The Design Team for the project is currently working to a programme for substantial completion in February of this year. The Department recently held a meeting with KWETB and the Design Team in order to work towards the goal of achieving substantial completion within the timeframe of the current programme.

The Design Team is keeping KWETB and the Department regularly informed of progress in this regard.

The project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved to the National Development Finance Agency (NDFA) for delivery as part of a programme of school building projects.

This project is currently at Stage 2a of the architectural planning process. Once the Stage Report submission is approved by my Department, the next step for the Design Team will be to obtain the statutory planning approvals. 

While at this early stage it is not possible to provide a timeline for completion of the project, the NDFA will be engaging directly with the school authority to keep it informed of progress.
