It had previously been hoped Tynwald would consider the plans in June
Treasury says it's 'very unlikely' a Tynwald vote on funding for the replacement for Castle Rushen High School will take place during this administration.
Senior figures from the department were asked about progress on the project during an appearance before the Public Accounts Committee.
It had previously been hoped the vote would take place at June's sitting, but Treasury Minister Chris Thomas confirmed it's now likely to be a decision for after the election.
He told the committee work on the cost is ongoing:
Further delay to TT schedule due to 'non-racing operational matter'
Crash which closed the Mountain Road ahead of racing 'not too serious'
Fine for pair who brought drugs to Island in campervan toilet
TT campers in 'high spirits' despite rain affecting race week
Delay to TT schedule following Mountain Road crash
