I recently announced a funding package of €75m to facilitate the reopening of Early Learning and services from June 29. ECCE service will be eligible for funding under both the Reopening Grant and the Covid-19 Capital Grant schemes.  This will support ECCE services to reopen. 

My Department is currently finalising contracts for the 2020/21 contract year for all Department funded schemes, including ECCE, which includes the capitation rate.
