Schools Building Projects
Seanad Éireann — 2022-10-26
============================================================

Tim Lombard (FG), Agricultural Panel

Can the Minister provide me with a copy of the report? It is important to get clarity on the construction phase. The period of 20 months is a similar period of time. I am aware the proposal is to knock half of the existing school and to build a new structure, and then to knock the other half and build the other structure.
I refer to the 20-month building timeframe. When will we get to a point by which the appropriate tenders are done so that we can get to the next phase and have a definitive timeline of when the building will be opened? I stress the need for this development as the population is growing. It is a positive school, both socially and for the community. Can we get clarification on when the new school will be opened?
