The Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science funds and creates policy for the higher and further education and research sectors. We also oversee the work of the state agencies and public institutions operating in these areas. Information on the promotion and support of the social enterprise sector in 2022, within the scope of the Deputy’s question, is not held by Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science.
I refer the Deputy to the DFHERIS Statement of Strategy for further details on the work of the Department: www.gov.ie/en/organisation-information/3f066-statement-of-strategy-2021-2023/.
The published Estimates for my Department’s Vote provides information regarding expenditure and may be of assistance to the Deputy.
