Additional funding will be provided to schools who had to purchase necessary supplies, including replacement dispenser units from an alternative supplier following a recall notice issued by the Department of Agriculture Food and the Marine in respect of the product ViraPro hand sanitiser.

Schools that were impacted by this issue will also be provided with funding for an aide for two days.

My Department is currently working through the details of this funding requirement and will be in a position to issue funding to those schools shortly.
