What annual funding do the scouts receive from the Exchequer? We know the movement wants more money but Mr. Lawlor might put that in the context of the annual funding it receives from the State, if any. Where does it come from and where do Mr. Lawlor wish to see it going? The objective of this meeting is to highlight the work the scouts do, create awareness of it, recognise the State's involvement or lack thereof and see how we can improve on that.

I would love to see a scouting group begin in Clonakilty, where I come from. How would I or any member go about that? What infrastructure is required to start a group to add value to our society by introducing scouting in our area?
