172. Deputy Colm Burke asked the Minister for Education and Youth to confirm the current status the application of a school (details supplied) under the additional accommodation scheme; when permission will be given to move to the next stage; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [48034/26]
View answerThe school referred to by the Deputy was approved to enter the Department’s pipeline of school buildings under the Additional School Accommodation Scheme for a project providing one SET room and ancillary. This project is devolved to the school authority for delivery.
I can confirm that the Stage 2b (Detailed Design) report was submitted to my Department and is currently review. As with all projects progressing through the programme, it is subject to the established due diligence processes set out in the Infrastructure Guidelines. This includes managing timing, scope, and cost to staying within budgetary limits for the overall programme.
This project remains part of the overall pipeline of school building projects and will continue to be managed in line with National Development Plan prioritisation parameters.
