The school to which the Deputy refers submitted an application under my Department's Emergency Works Scheme for structural works. The school has recently been informed, on appeal from the original decision, that the scope of works for the project was outside the terms of the Emergency Works Scheme and cannot be considered for emergency funding. It was further informed that it could apply for funding under the Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme.
