Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 5 March 2009
198 Deputy Eamon Scanlon asked the Minister for Education and Science the reason a grant for a school (details supplied) in County Sligo was withdrawn after the architect was employed, the job given to a contractor and money expended on the project; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9359/09]
Amharc ar fhreagraI presume that the Deputy is referring to a project at the school in question for the removal and disposal of a prefabricated unit containing asbestos and its replacement with a new unit. As an application form had not been received from the school, my Department recently contacted the school management in the matter. When the application is received, it will be addressed as a matter of urgency and the school informed of the position without delay.
