710. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills when her Department will give approval to a submitted report for the building of an ASD suite in a school (details supplied), given it has been with her Department for ten months and the appointed contractor cannot proceed without this approval in place.

I am pleased to inform the deputy that the school in question was approved funding under my Department’s Additional School Accommodation (ASA) Scheme for 2 special education needs classrooms. This project is devolved for delivery to the school authority.

My Department’s professional and technical team are currently reviewing the stage 2b report and the recommendations will be shared with the school authority once this is complete.

I trust this clarifies the situation.
