The school to which the deputy refers submitted a request for funding under the Emergency Works Scheme (EWS) regarding Life Safety Systems in December 2023. My Department has been engaged in ongoing consultation with the school since this application was received. The EWS team is currently awaiting further information in respect of this application, once this information is received the EWS team will review the information and issue approval, as appropriate.

My Department is aware of the urgent nature of the works required and will keep the school informed throughout the process.
