The expectation is that the current round of the Momentum programme will spend the full allocated budget for the programme.

In terms of a further round of Momentum officials in my Department are working with their colleagues in the Department of Social Protection to determine the overall requirement for education and training programmes for 2016. The arrangements for and the timing of any potential third round of Momentum will be considered in that context and in the light of the evaluation of the current round of Momentum.
