Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 April 2015
148. Deputy Michael Ring asked the Minister for Education and Skills the position regarding a school (details supplied) in County Mayo; the funding that has been grant-aided to this school; the further funding that has been sought by the school; and if this will be grant-aided. [16003/15]
View answerIn February, 2014 the school referred to by the Deputy was sanctioned a devolved grant under my Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme to provide 3 new mainstream classrooms and an assisted user's toilet.
As a contract to have these works carried out has not been awarded, the amount of funding provided is commercially sensitive and cannot be disclosed yet. An application for additional funding has been received and is currently being assessed and the school authority will be notified of the outcome as soon as the assessment is completed.
