I understand that the school authority has been in telephone contact with the Building Unit of my Department concerning a problem with the water tanks. I understand that an application for emergency funding will be submitted in the near future. When this application is received it will be assessed without delay and the school authorities will be notified of the outcome.

Emergency works grants are made available to those schools most in need of resources as a result of unforeseen emergencies of a capital nature that may arise during the school year. It is open to the school in question to submit an application for emergency funding to the Building Unit of my Department. Should such an application be submitted it will be assessed without delay and the school authorities will be notified of the outcome.
