This project remains at Stage 2b of the architectural planning process. My Department is currently awaiting submission of the Stage 2b Report from Tipperary ETB for review. When the Stage 2b is submitted the project will be subjected to a detailed review from both a technical and cost perspective, in accordance with the Department’s Infrastructure Guidelines.

Progression to the next stage of the process will be subject to the outcome of this review and will be considered in the context of the Department's prioritisation framework under the National Development Plan.

My Department will continue to engage with Tipperary ETB as the project progresses through the required stages.
