506. To ask the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs to outline her plans to grant funding to a group (details supplied) in view of the nature of the specialised services they provide; if Tusla is in a position to also provide further funding to the group; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

My Department does not provide funding to the organisation referred to by the Deputy.

Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, has confirmed that it provided funding of €6,300 to the named organisation for Family Support Services Counselling in 2017.

Tusla has advised me that funding for 2018 has not yet issued to the organisation referred to by the Deputy, as Tusla has not been furnished with a signed and completed Service Level Agreement for 2018.
