Concern has again been raised over the ongoing delay in the long-awaited refurbishment project at the Patrician Academy in Mallow.
Last December local Labour TD Seán Sherlock questioned why it had been omitted from the Project 2040 projects list- despite it being his understanding that it had been set to go to tender early this year. While I welcome the fact that other local projects, including the Mallow Town Regeneration Plan and the 68-unit Hazelbrook social housing scheme are on the list, I find it odd that the Patrician is not. Particularly in light of the fact that it has been on the books since the fire back in 2016, said Deputy Sherlock.
