Extension and source-reported progress; completion not independently verified · South Dublin SD20A/0283/EP; extension of the earlier SD20A/0283 permission
What the evidence says
The council decision dated 21 July 2026 grants a one-year extension of the existing permission, with an expiry of 23 June 2027. The notification was signed on 22 July. Its long development description repeats the older campus permission; this extension is not treated as approval for another pair of data-centre buildings or another equipment order.
Why it may matter — interpretation
Interpretation: distinguishes a consent-duration change from additional development scope.
What is not established
Subsequent amendments, completed remaining work and a completion certificate have not been verified.

What the evidence says
The May extension submission reports the central administration building and DUB14/DUB15 data centres as substantially complete. It identifies the GNI gas skid as the only remaining work and shows that small area separately from the constructed development. This is the applicant’s reported progress at that date, not an independent inspection or evidence that all old generator and transformer quantities are new opportunities now.
Why it may matter — interpretation
Interpretation: prevents the repeated historic building and equipment description from being counted as an entirely new construction package.
What is not established
Current as-built progress, the detailed remaining skid specification and installed equipment are unverified.

The only remaining works are the GNI skid
Extension and source-reported progress; completion not independently verified · May reported programme for the remaining skid; later permission expiry is a separate milestone
What the evidence says
The May submission says skid construction had commenced and was due to finish during 2026. It seeks the additional year to allow for delays and anticipates completion by 2027 at the latest. These are source-reported programme expectations. The later council expiry of 23 June 2027 is a permission date, not evidence that commissioning is finished.
Why it may matter — interpretation
Interpretation: keeps planned completion, legal duration and actual completion distinct.
What is not established
A current construction programme, commissioned connection and verified completion date are not established.

Selected pages of 2 government-published PDFs were visually inspected. Nine literal public council document links were retained. Selected pages of two supporting PDFs were visually inspected. A third assessment PDF was text-screened only; this is not a comprehensive review of the older parent permission. Proposals do not establish procurement or installed work.
