The centre in question runs a community employment project, CE, which is funded by FÁS. I am informed by FÁS that it will assist the centre to find alternative affordable premises. It is the practice of FÁS to provide a standard payment to sponsors of CE projects. This is based on the number of participants and supervisors. In addition, a contribution is given towards the costs of materials and the personal development and training of participants.
