The school to which the Deputy refers was approved for a grant of €13,000 under the Outdoor Play measure, €3,000 under the ICT Equipment measure and €110,000 under the Parent Room and Library combined measure of the Dormant Accounts Fund for Educational Disadvantage. The grant of €13,000 for Outdoor Play facilities was paid in full on 30 January 2008 and the grant of €3,000 for ICT Equipment was paid in full on 19 March 2008. The grant for the Parent Room and Library combined measure is paid in two instalments, i.e., 70% commencement grant of €77,000 was paid on 11 February 2009 and 30% completion grant of €33,000 is currently being processed in my Department and should be in the school's bank account in the next few days.
