I wish to inform you that my Department does not provide direct funding to organisations, such as the Junior Club referred to by the Deputy. The organisation may wish to approach the Department of Social and Family Affairs, which operates a Family Services Project. Examples of activities funded under this Programme including parenting projects for very young lone parents, support programmes for families of disabled persons and family support for Travellers on its website.
