The school referred to by the Deputy was allocated devolved funding for the provision of a mainstream classroom under my Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme 2011.

In February 2012 the school sought additional funding as a result of planning conditions associated with the building project. My Department's Planning and Building Unit is currently assessing this application and has requested further information from the school authorities. When this information is received a final decision will be communicated to the Board of Management.
