The Pioneer Total Abstinence Association has contacted my Department with a proposal regarding youth work. This proposal is under consideration. I am aware that the Kilkenny branch of the association received a small grant in 2003 under the local youth club grant scheme, a small scale scheme administered on behalf of the Department by the VECs.
