Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I can confirm to the Deputy that a grant was approved in November 2015 under my Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme to enable the Board of Management of the school in question to provide a mainstream classroom and ancillary accommodation.

The school recently submitted an application for additional funding for the project. This application is currently being considered and a decision will issue to the School authority as soon as possible.
