Capitation Grants: Motion (Resumed)
6:00 pm
John Curran (Dublin Mid West, Fianna Fail)
The rate of increase far exceeds the inflation rate. The Government will meet its commitment to double the capitation grant by 2012, albeit not in one year as suggested by the Labour Party.
Several hundred schools in disadvantaged areas receive additional funding through the DEIS project and enhanced capitation rates are available for special schools or classes in schools.
