Given the importance of the support work the centres do, would the NCCP have any role in starting centres in areas that do not have them? I am looking at Dublin because I am a Dublin TD. There are many areas of Dublin that do not have centres, and I am sure the same applies all over the country. There is a big element of postcode lottery. Would the NCCP be initiating or recommending new centres to start?
