I would like to inform the Deputy that the school in question have been approved funding under the Summer Works Scheme 2021 for roof works.
The Department received communication from the School Authority on the 11th June in relation to an asbestos report, this was reviewed by a member of our technical team and the school were advised as to what steps should be taken to remove the asbestos.
The school authority also raised the issue of a possible increase in costs associated with this project and have been requested to submit an itemised breakdown of costs.
