I wish to advise the Deputy that the school to which he refers submitted an application for window replacement works under the 2014 Summer Works Scheme.

Commensurate with the level of funding set aside for the Scheme, applications were assessed on a top down basis in accordance with the prioritisation criteria outlined in the Circular accompanying the Scheme.

Unfortunately, due to the scale of demand for funding under the Scheme, it was not possible to grant aid all applications, including those received for window replacement.

However, in accordance with the Scheme's Circular, the application will be retained and will be prioritised for consideration under any further rounds of the Summer Works Scheme in the future, subject to availability of funding.
