I propose to take Questions Nos. 324 and 325 together.
The large scale capital project at the school referred to by the deputy is at an advanced stage of Architectural Planning Stage 3 - Tender Action and Award.
The second Tender Report for Reserved Specialists was reviewed by my Department and comments issued to the Design Team and DDLETB for action. When a satisfactory reply is received in relation to the queries raised, we will provide an update to the school authority.
This project remains a priority for delivery.
