Written answers

The Deputy will be aware  that while the NCS is an initiative of the DCEDIY, a Scheme Administrator has been engaged to manage the operation of the Scheme on the Department’s behalf. Pobal acts in this capacity as Scheme Administrator, and it is their role to follow up on individual cases.  

The Department has referred this query to Pobal, who will contact the person (Details Supplied) directly to resolve the matter.

If any of your constituents are looking for assistance on the NCS the dedicated Contact Centres can be contracted as follows:

Parents should be advised to contact the Parent Support Centre on 01 906 8530, Monday to Friday 9am-5pm, or to visit www.ncs.gov.ie.

Childcare providers should be directed to the Early Years Provider Centre by contacting eypc@pobal.ie, or calling 01 511 7222, Monday to Friday 8am-6pm.
