My Department does not provide grants or funding schemes to the organisation to which the Deputy refers.
In certain instances the Department provides funding to schools for the rent of land or premises for the purposes of temporary accommodation, typically pending the delivery of a school building project. In some cases, the rented land or premises is in the ownership of a local branch of the relevant association. These rental arrangements between the school and the property-owner are based on local circumstances, given the needs of the school and the available solutions, but do not involve grant-aid to the association in question.
