115. Deputy Marie Sherlock asked the Minister for Education and Youth when a decision will be made regarding the repeated applications for emergency works submitted by Dublin and Dun Laoghaire Education and Training Board, seeking emergency works funding repairs for a school (details supplied), which creates an unsafe working environment for students and staff; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17244/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe school in question submitted an application for funding under the Emergency Works Scheme (EWS) for roof works on 19th February 2026. The EWS operates on the basis of a minimal scope of works required to remedy an emergency situation and, on this basis, the school was advised to submit photographs as per Circular Letter 0068/2020 . Once this has been received the EWS team will review the revised application and will engage further with the school as appropriate. The EWS team is aware of the urgent nature of the works required and will keep the school informed throughout the process.
