The total 2009 allocation of €16.595m of Departmental funding of Skillnets Ltd. activity has been drawn down in full. Disbursement of grant aid and relevant communications with individual networks are operational matters for Skillnets Ltd. in which I have no function.

All publicly funded training programmes for those in work are currently being reviewed in the context of the 2010 estimates process. It is not possible in advance of the completion of the estimates process, culminating in Budget day announcements by the Minister for Finance, to give any commitment to continued funding for any existing programme or to particular levels of any such funding.
