In 2011, under the National Education Welfare Board (Transfer of Departmental Administration and Ministerial Functions) Order, 2011 responsibility for the School Completion Programme (SCP) transferred to the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs. The full budget allocation for SCP, in 2011, was €30.3m. This funding transferred to the Department of Children and Youth Affairs in 2011. Prior to the transfer of functions SCP was administered by my Department from 2002 to 2010 and the expenditure for this programme during that time is detailed in the following table:
