Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection

Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

1:30 pm

Ms Orlaigh Quinn:

We will make that input when the regulation is completed and decided. At the end of June if we get an agreed proposal, we will start to draw up what we intend to do with the funding allocated to us. It is currently very focused on homelessness but not exclusively on that. The proposal states that member states can be flexible in terms of school meals.
