Recently, I met Sphere 17, which is a youth service in my constituency based in Darndale, Priorswood, Bonnybrook and Kilbarrack. It does tremendous work. I also met some of the young people who use the youth service who spoke about how well they feel supported there in terms of it being a safe place and a place where they are encouraged to reach their full potential. Youth services such as Sphere 17 do invaluable work helping to support our young people in communities around the country. Given the importance of this work, is the Taoiseach considering in the budget giving better resources and better funding to youth services such as Sphere 17?
