My Department has a funding provision of €500,000 in respect of National Lottery Funding for 2013 and the closing date for applications was 18 October 2013. Over 600 applications, totalling over €7.5m, were received and the school to which the Deputy refers is one of these applications. As the volume of applications far exceeds the available resources it may not be possible to assist all applications. The assessment process is ongoing and all applicants will be informed of the outcome as soon as final decisions have been made.
