Question:

Written answers

The contracts with all 445 service providers funded by the Community Services Programme will expire at the end of December 2010. Subject to satisfactory performance, provision of resources and continued eligibility of activities, revised contracts for up to three years from the 1st January 2011 are being offered to the service providers as the Department completes the contract renewal process. My intention is to complete the process of offering new contracts over the next few weeks.

In 2010, 33 companies in the community sector in County Mayo provided services with the support of the Programme. Some €3.5m has been allocated and my Department estimates that when part-time positions are taken into account, around 200 people are employed with the support of the Programme in the county. Details of the companies providing services are set out in the table below.
