Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 22 October 2019
197. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he is in receipt of a funding application from a primary school (details supplied) in County Mayo; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [43136/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraI can confirm that the school referred to by the Deputy has submitted an application under my Department’s multi-annual Summer Works Scheme (SWS) 2020 onwards.
I wish to advise the Deputy that commensurate with the level of funding available for the SWS in 2020, applications will be assessed on a top down basis in accordance with the prioritisation criteria outlined in the governing Circular Letter for the Scheme. This Circular Letter (0027/2019) is available on my Department's website www.education.ie.
It is my intention to publish a list of successful applicants in Q4 2019 for works to be carried out in summer 2020.
