My Department has approved the application in relation to the person referred to by the Deputy. Approval was conveyed by letter dated 11th August 2005 to the authorities of the school in which the pupil is enrolled.

In accordance with the terms of the scheme under which applications for such assistance are processed, schools are required to submit receipted invoices in order to receive payment from my Department. This was conveyed to the school in question in the aforementioned letter. My Department awaits submission of the relevant documentation in this case.
