I welcome the Minister and her staff. I refer to the additional €2.5 million being made available for social disadvantage measures under dormant account funding. What measures will that be used for? Has an audit ever been conducted on the impact of these measures in socially disadvantaged areas? Are they working? For example, if DEIS schools are given money, they are audited to ascertain the impact of the funding. We should all be cognisant of this.
