Mr. Ruairí de Búrca:

We do not fund missionary organisations directly. We fund an organisation called Misean Cara, which works with missionary organisations to vet projects. It is not that missionary organisations are funded. Projects proposed by missionary organisations that are members of Misean Cara are funded on the basis of project applications, which are assessed against a set of criteria. Some of those applications pass and others fail. It is not orders that are funded; it is projects in different parts of the world. From memory, missionary projects in more than 100 countries were funded in 2019. I do not know if that answers the Deputy's question, but that is the model that we use to fund missionaries.
