The Deputy might note that the gross funding allocation for the provision of services to support children, young people and families in my Department`s Vote under Budget 2017 amounted to €1.311 billion. The allocation is reduced to €1.309 billion when account is taken of the €2 million that was provided in respect of the Lansdowne Road Agreement. This level of funding represents an overall increase of €171 million when compared to the resources provided in Budget 2016 and €200 million over the projected expenditure outturn for 2016.
