400. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the urgent remedial action she will take to deal with the structural defects at a school (details supplied), given that two classrooms are unusable due to roof water ingress and the presence of asbestos, and where progress on supplying a special education unit has been delayed due to the deteriorating condition of the school roof and the significant health and safety issues that arise from this; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The school to which the Deputy refers submitted an application for funding under the Emergency Works Scheme (EWS) for roof works.The application in question is currently being reviewed by the technical area within the EWS. Once a technical recommendation has been received the EWS team will engage further with the school as appropriate.

The EWS team is aware of the urgent nature of the works required and will keep the school informed throughout the process.
