Text

Thank you, Minister. I apologise for missing the first part of your answer. Would your Department consider putting in place any capital funds, particularly for smaller rural schools? I should have declared an interest as a parent of children who were impacted on by the school closures. Two of my children go to a school that was closed in Ballycastle. Rural schools might not necessarily have large security infrastructure and have very open sites. Will there be a capital fund for those schools?
