An amount of €546 million has been allocated in the HSE vote for 2013 in respect of children and family services. This consists of €545 million in current expenditure and €1 million in capital.
The Child and Family Agency is in the process of being established. In addition to taking on responsibility for the HSE Children and Family Services budget the Agency will, on establishment, also assume responsibility for the budgets of both the Family Support Agency (€23.599 million in 2013) and the National Educational Welfare Board (€9.042million in 2013).
