Written answers

In reviewing the operation of the programme of grants for locally based community and voluntary organisations 2004, and having regard to the funds available for the programme and the availability of funding from other sources, a number of categories of organisations were excluded from applying under the programme. Family resource centres were one of those categories excluded. The Department of Social and Family Affairs funds family resource centres under the family and community services resource programme through the Family Support Agency. It is open to the group in question to apply for funding under that programme.
