Question:
To ask the Minister of Education, further to the NI Audit Office report, Managing the Schools' Estate, whether he will develop a programme of planned maintenance, informed by up to date condition data, for the school estate.

Answer:

My Department’s response to the Northern Ireland Audit Office report on Managing the Schools’ Estate, and the subsequent Public Accounts Committee hearing, will be set out in the Memorandum of Reply (MoR) to the Minister of Finance.

Once the MoR has been reviewed by the Minister of Finance, it will be presented to the Assembly and uploaded to the Department of Finance website.
