As previously advised to the Deputy, is not the policy of my Department generally to sanction retrospective funding for projects which were progressed without prior approval. In limited and very exceptional cases, it has been necessary to provide retrospective funding for certain projects.
My Department does not keep an inventory of projects where retrospective funding may have been sanctioned. If the Deputy has a particular case in mind he should provide the details to the School Building Section of my Department for examination.
