Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 September 2013
1265. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs her plans to change the level of funding currently allocated to the family resource centre programme in Budget 2014; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [38577/13]
View answerFunding requirements and how resources should be prioritised and allocated across each area of Government spending are generally considered as part of the annual estimates cycle and budgetary process. I am sure the Deputy will appreciate that it would be inappropriate for me to comment at this time on any future decisions that may be taken by Government in the context of Budget 2014 on the expenditure allocation for this or any programmes falling within the Vote of my Department.
