Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

I can confirm to the Deputy that the school to which he refers has submitted an application for grant aid under the summer works scheme, SWS, for roof repairs and mechanical works. All SWS applications are currently being assessed in the school planning section of my Department. I intend to publish the list of successful applicants shortly.
