Question:

486 Mr. P. Breen asked the Minister for Education and Science if 100% funding under the summer works scheme will be provided for a school (details supplied) in County Clare; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [3899/06]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

The management authority of the school in question made a successful application for funding under the summer works scheme 2005. The terms of the scheme included detail on the level of funding available and the local contribution payable in respect of applications. The scheme also provided advice on the options available where a shortfall of funding occurred. The management authority accepted these terms and it is not my intention to depart from the terms of the scheme.
