Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 12 November 2008
265 Deputy Martin Ferris asked the Minister for Education and Science the status of an application for a furniture replacement grant by a school (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40100/08]
View answerMy Department received an application for funding for replacement furniture from the school in question. This application has been considered for funding. However, in light of the competing demands on the available budget, it was not possible to approve funding to replace existing furniture at this time.
The Board of Management submitted an appeal against the decision and will be advised of the outcome as soon as possible.
