I have arranged that an application form for emergency works for the school in question be issued to the Deputy.
As soon as the completed form is received it will be considered as a matter of urgency and the outcome will be notified to the school authorities without delay.

The management authority of the school in question applied for funding for carparking and replacement of windows and doors under the Summer Works Scheme 2007. Carparking was listed as the Priority 1 project. Under the prioritisation system these works were classed Category 10 (External Environment). Unfortunately the category applying to this type of project was not reached.
The school authority, however, also submitted an application under the Emergency Works Grant for funding for the works in question. I am pleased to inform the Deputy that the Building Unit of my Department has recently approved funding for these works.
