Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 May 2022
309. Deputy Kathleen Funchion asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the total funding allocated in 2020, 2021 and 2022 to the training and employment childcare scheme; and the amount of this allocation that was spent in 2020 and 2021, in tabular form. [27070/22]
View answerThere is no specific budget for the Training and Employment Childcare programme, it is incorporated within the National Childcare Scheme (NCS) budget.
The Training and Employment Childcare (TEC) programme budgets are approved by programme year, as opposed to calendar year. Included in the below tables are the 2019/20 and 2020/21 programme year allocations for the TEC programme with payments made in the calendar years 2020 and 2021.
After the 2020/21 programme year, TEC finished as a standalone programme. From the 2021/22 programme year, this moved to an allocation under CCSP, as ‘CCSP- TEC Final Year’. The total value of approved registration for the 2021/22 programme year has been included, along with the value of payments made in the year 2021 only.
