I would like to inform the Deputy that the school in question were approved funding for the installation of a lift under my Departments Emergency Works Scheme in September 2021, as this is a Devolved Scheme the responsibility for progressing the works lies with the school authority.

The Emergency Works Team have contacted the school for an update and have been informed that a Consultant has been appointed and the tender report is being compiled, they hope to begin the works this summer.
