I wish to inform the Deputy that an appeal against the refusal of the Emergency Works application in question has been received and is currently being assessed. A response will issue directly to the school once a decision has been made in that respect.

I wish to advise the Deputy that an application for roof works submitted under the Emergency Works Scheme was refused on the basis that the application was outside the terms of the scheme.

However, an appeal of this decision has recently been received from the school and is currently being considered. The school will be informed directly of the outcome of this appeal as soon as a decision has been made in that respect.
