The scope of works referred to by the Deputy is appropriate for consideration under the summer works scheme, SWS. While a joint application was received from the schools in question under the SWS for 2005, it did not refer to a toilet upgrade. The schools applied for replacement windows and this application was successful. If toilet works are necessary, it will be open to the management authorities to apply for this under the SWS for 2006, details of which will be announced later this year.
