The joint major building project including the school referred to by the Deputy is assigned to my Department’s ADAPT (Accelerated Delivery of Architectural Planning and Tendering) programme.
My Department authorised the Design Team to proceed to retender the project as the first tranche of tenders were deemed unviable.
The original planning permission expired in May 2022, due to a change in the Planning Acts introduced by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage in Sept 2021 which removed the option to extend a planning permission, a new planning application was lodged in August 2022 and will run in parallel with the new tender process, once planning permission is secured, and subject to satisfactory completion of the retender process, this joint major project is anticipated to be on site in Q2 2023.
