Question:
To ask the Minister for Employment and Learning, pursuant to AQW 48696/11-16, whether a decision regarding the preferred option for the accommodation needs of the Northern Regional College has been made, and when it will be announced.

Answer:

A final Outline Business Case was received from the Northern Regional College on 15 October 2015 and is being assessed by my Department. It sets out the College’s proposals for addressing its accommodation needs in the Coleraine, Ballymoney and Ballymena areas.

Following my acceptance of the Business Case proposals, further approval will be required from the Department of Finance and Personnel before the College’s plans can be made public.
