Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 May 2022
300. Deputy Kathleen Funchion asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the amount of funding that was allocated in 2021 and 2022 to Community Childcare Subvention Plus; and the amount of the allocation that was spent in 2021 and 2022, in tabular form. [27061/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraThere is no specific budget for the Community Childcare Subvention Plus Saver Programme (CSSP). CCSP is a legacy scheme, which is being replaced by the National Childcare Scheme (NCS). It is therefore incorporated under that budget.
The NCS budget for the years 2021 and 2022 is as follows:
|
