Catherine Connolly (IND), Galway West

Next month marks two years since the wonderful announcement of the go-ahead for a proposed new further education college in Galway city. After the announcement, we moved on to the preliminary business case. We all welcomed the announcement. It related to a college for the future, a campus and lifelong learning. My specific question is on the status of the proposed new further education college in Galway city. Has the preliminary business case been completed? Has the evaluation by SOLAS and the Department been completed? Will the project now move on to the pre-tender stage?
