It is assumed that the Deputy is referring to the recently announced OMCYA Dormant Accounts Youth Café Funding Scheme which is being administered by POBAL on behalf of my Office. As the closing date for applications under this scheme is not until Friday June 11th next, no applications have yet been received or considered in relation to this scheme. All initial applications under this scheme will be forwarded to local County & City Development boards (CDBs) who will then submit a short-list of suitable applications to POBAL. Full details of the scheme are available on www.pobal.ie
