The major project referred to by the Deputy is at Architectural Planning Stage 3 – Tender Action and Award.
A tender report was received by Department Officials in 2023, in the course of the review it was noted that the planning permission was due to expire in early December 2023 and a new planning permission was required.
We are liaising with the Design team in relation to requirements for the New Planning Permission and the Design Team held a pre-planning meeting with Fingal County Council in March 2024.
We will be in contact with the School and the Design Team when there is further information in relation to the tender process.
