I can confirm that the Department is in receipt of two applications for capital funding from the management authority of the school to which the Deputy refers, one under the Permanent Accommodation Scheme 2007 and one under the Small Schools Scheme 2007.

The closing date for receipt of applications for both of these devolved funding schemes was the 27th October 2006. The Department is now in the process of assessing the applications of the all schools that applied under these schemes according to the published prioritisation criteria.

A list of successful schools will be published when the assessment process has been completed.
