Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 20 October 2005
108 Mr. O’Connor asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs his views on the pre-budget submission made by Tallaght welfare society which has provided services in Tallaght since 1969; his proposed responses to the submission; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29875/05]
View answerEarlier this week, I held a pre-budget forum which was attended by 31 representative organisations, including the Tallaght Welfare Society. At this forum, each organisation, including this society, had the opportunity to present its key priorities for consideration in advance of budget 2006. I thank the society for its contribution to the forum and the valuable work which it and many other organisations do in their communities.
I have also received a written pre-budget submission from the society. The proposals contained therein will be considered in the context of the forthcoming budget.
