Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

A sum of €50,000 has been allocated for the National Forum on Peace and Reconciliation. What is the purpose of this allocation? Does the Taoiseach not consider it appropriate that the body be wound up because we are long past the time for the establishment of the all-Ireland civic forum provided for under the Good Friday Agreement? Will the Taoiseach clarify his intent in this regard?

Regarding the national centre for partnership and performance, which is to receive an 88% increase in funding, will the Taoiseach indicate what is the purpose of these moneys?
