667. Deputy Mark Ward asked the Minister for Justice the funding for community prison links workers for each year since its inception; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7602/25]
View answerMy Department acts only as a conduit for prison-link projects and I am advised that they are in fact funded chiefly by the Department of Health. The Department of Justice has no role in monitoring the projects, dealing with funding requests, or looking at any of their day-to-day activities. The Deputy may wish to put a question to the Minister for Health in this regard.
