Funding is provided by my Department, through SOLAS, for further education and training programmes, including adult literacy. The literacy programme is delivered locally through the network of Education and Training Boards (ETBs). I understand from City of Dublin ETB that an adult literacy service is provided by the ETB in the centre referred to by the Deputy. There is no question of SOLAS taking over the centre. The ETB will continue to have responsibility for the operation of the literacy service. The extent of the literacy service to be provided and the organisation of classes in any centre is a matter for the ETB.
