Will the Minister expand on the funding of family resource centres or where she sees the Department supporting them? I have admired the ABC programmes because we do not have them in Galway. I visited Preparing for Life, which is in Darndale, the other day. The Minister is dead right in her comments as we must look at other initiatives to bring this to the rest of the country. What is good about the process is very good and we would love to embrace some of that on the other side of the Shannon. Currently, the family resource centres do so much for us in the west.
