The Deputy will be aware that I recently announced details of the schools that will receive Summer Works Scheme funding in 2014 in respect of applications submitted for Categories 1 to 6 i.e. Gas, Electrical, Mechanical, Toilet Facilities and Roof Works projects. In total, I have approved the spending of more than €70 million on the Summer Works Scheme to allow over 770 schools undertake improvement works during the summer months. A list of these schools may be viewed on my Department's website www.education.gov.ie. I wish to advise the Deputy that the level of grant allocated to each school cannot be disclosed at this point as to do so could prejudice the tender process.
