View answerAs advised in my response to the Deputy’s question in relation to this school on 16th May last, my Department as well as the Financial Service Support Unit (FSSU) have been in contact with them regarding their financial circumstances.
I can confirm that my Department is engaging with the school in relation to the supports available following an assessment of the financial situation in the school by officials in my Department and the FSSU. These supports include provision of additional funding as well as assistance from the FSSU who will provide advice and support to the school with regard to their future finances and implementing any budgetary measures
