I propose to take Questions Nos. 104, 112, 117 to 119, inclusive, 121, 122, 124, 125 and 127.

I am pleased to advise that yesterday I announced the Minor Works Grant 2017/2018 for primary schools across the country and payment will issue next week.

The funding will allow minor works to be carried out on the physical infrastructure of schools or on the purchase of items of furniture and equipment.
