I can confirm that the school referred to by the Deputy was approved under the Additional School Accommodation (ASA) Scheme to enter my Department’s pipeline of school buildings for 2 General Classrooms, 1 Engineering Room, 2 Construction Rooms with 1 Prep Area, 1 Design & Communication Graphics room, 1 Multi Media room, 1 Graphics room, 1 Science Room with 1 Prep Area, 2 Classroom SEN base, and 3 SET rooms. The school authority is being assisted by Galway and Roscommon ETB (GRETB) in the delivery of this project.

A Stage 1 Addendum report was submitted to my department and a review of this report is ongoing by department officials after a resubmission of the addendum report was required. The project is currently being reviewed from both a technical and cost perspective in accordance with the requirements of the Public Spending Code.

The Department will be in contact with the GRETB directly once this review has been completed.

My officials will continue to work closely with the GRETB and its design team to provide practical advice and assistance on this very important project.
