444. Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for Education when funding will be approved for an ASD unit at a school (details supplied) in County Tipperary; the reason for the delays in finalising the funding; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [9393/22]
View answerI can confirm that the school to which the Deputy refers to was approved funding under my Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme to build a 2-classroom SEN Base.
I can confirm that my Department has received a Stage 1/2A report from the school. This report is currently being reviewed by officials in my Department. A decision will be conveyed to the school authority as soon as this review has been completed.
