Summer Works Scheme Applications
158. Deputy James Browne asked the Minister for Education and Skills if a school (details supplied) can appeal the decision on its summer works scheme application; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [53458/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraI can confirm to the Deputy that the school in question has submitted an application for External Environment Projects under the Summer Works Scheme (SWS) 2016.
The Deputy may be aware that I recently announced details of the schools that will receive funding in summer 2020 in respect of applications submitted for "Life Safety Systems projects".
Commensurate with the level of funding set aside for the Scheme, applications are being assessed on a top down basis in accordance with the prioritisation criteria outlined in the Circular accompanying the Scheme. In this regard, applications submitted for other works will be considered under future rounds of the Summer works Scheme. The school in question will be considered in this regard.
