It is confusing sometimes to know the category under which an issue falls. I welcome that the Minister singled out the school completion programme in her opening statement. At every opportunity I get I will raise that programme and the good work the people involved do. I honestly do not know how they do that fantastic work on the budget available to them. I am aware the Minister had the opportunity to visit the one in Kilkenny recently, which was very welcome. Is there any increase under the Tusla money for school completion? I welcome also the Minister's statement that there will be a slight increase for the domestic violence support services.
