Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 April 2019
182. Deputy Aindrias Moynihan asked the Minister for Education and Skills the position regarding an application for additional accommodation in a school (details supplied) in County Cork; if a previous summer works application to change the boundary is being considered; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15184/19]
View answerI can confirm to the Deputy that the school in question has submitted an application, to my Department, for capital funding under the 'Additional School Accommodation Scheme'.
The application is currently under assessment, as soon as this process has been completed my Department will be in direct contact with the school authority concerned.
I can also confirm that the school in question has a Category 10 application under the 2016/17 Summer Works Scheme. With regard to the remaining applications under Category 10, which relate to external works such as upgrading and resurfacing of playgrounds and car parking, these applications require more detailed analysis. It is intended to undertake this analysis shortly.
