MONEY from dormant bank accounts is to be used to buy computers for schools in disadvantaged areas in a €1m scheme.
Minister Batt O'Keeffe said he was inviting 100 schools to apply for the grants, which will not exceed €20,000, and explained: "Funding will be devolved to individual school authorities to buy ICT resources."
