I have been informed by the City of Dublin VEC that the £15,000 allocated for materials and equipment at the resource centre was used to provide items such as books, office supplies, a litho press printing machine, cassette recorders, camera and video equipment, filing cabinets and room furniture. Expenditure on the research project included salaries of a research officer and two field workers; research contracted to the Higher Education Department, Trinity College; assessment project by the Education Research Centre, Drumcondra; and printing of two reports.
