My Department's main interventions in the area of Early Years education are in the areas of disadvantage or special needs and there isn't funding available from the Department or from its agencies to support play therapy centres. Support for childcare is provided by the Office of the Minister for Children under the National Childcare Investment Programme 2006-2010 and the Deputy may wish to refer this to the OMC.
