My Department has recently received an application for grant assistance towards the cost of resurfacing the playground and entrance at Milltown national school, and is aware of the concerns expressed. The Office of Public Works has been asked to report on the works sought and, when this report is received, and considered, my Department will be in touch with the school management.
