Schools Building Projects
Seanad Éireann — 2023-10-26
============================================================

Neale Richmond (FG), Dublin Rathdown

The Department and project manager will keep school authorities and all relevant bodies informed of further development regarding the completion of stage one and the progression of the major building project. Until the project is at a point at which all statutory approvals have been granted, however, it is not possible to provide an update on the expected on-site date. I will undertake to liaise with the Minister for Education, Deputy Foley, and the Minister of State at the Department of Education, Deputy Madigan, in this regard. I encourage the Senator to write to them directly, as I am sure he has. We will make sure to keep the entire community of Kinsale - the church and school communities, parents, prospective parents, businesses and local representatives like the Senator and Councillor O'Sullivan updated as clearly as possible and that there is a collective effort to drive this as quickly as possible. I am sure we will deliver that.
