At the end of last year, I was delighted to announce that Dublin and Dun Laoghaire ETB’s strategic proposal was successful at the first stage of the assessment process under the FET College of the Future Major Projects Fund.

This proposal will now move to the next stage of the process which will entail the development of a preliminary business case in line with public spending code requirements. As part of this stage Dublin and Dun Laoghaire ETB will also be required to carry out a robust site selection process. Possible site options will be identified following completion of this stage. Dublin and Dun Laoghaire ETB will be meeting with my Department and SOLAS next week to progress their Preliminary Business Case.
