I have responsibility for implementation of the National Childcare Investment Programme 2006-2010 (NCIP).

The company referred to by the Deputy, was approved under the NCIP for capital grant funding up to a maximum of €520,000, of which €501,093 has been paid to date. I understand that the company is seeking additional funding for the project and that Pobal, who assist my Office in the day to day management of the NCIP, is examining this request. When Pobal report to my Office a decision on the company's request will be made and the outcome will be advised to the company.
