The project to which the Deputy refers is part of a school campus project at Kilbride, Co. Wicklow. It has been devolved for delivery to Kildare and Wicklow Education and Training Board (KWETB).

I am pleased to inform you that the pre-qualification process for the project is underway and once complete and following Departmental approval, KWETB will continue with the tender process for appointing a contractor and onwards to construction in due course.

It is not possible at this time to give a date for the commencement of the project on site, but KWETB will be engaging directly with the school authority to keep it informed of progress in this respect.
