Aidan Farrelly (Kildare North, Social Democrats)

On building blocks, I will give an example about the €750,000 cap. In Kildare we have a shell of a site that has been on the market for the last couple of years for €600,000. By the time it is fitted out and made ready, we are well in excess of that €750,000. I am not asking the Minister anything right now but am just flagging that the figure can become a difficulty, certainly for the community I am working with right now.

I echo colleagues' feedback on family resource centres. The announcements have been extremely positive. To hear the Minister announce there would potentially be ten more and, potentially, an increase in funding to pre-existing services is important. Where would those ten additional services be going next year? I might as well ask.
