While my Department supports the objectives of the National Social Enterprise Policy for Ireland 2019 - 2022, it does not provide funding for the promotion and support of the social enterprise sector and will not, as a consequence, be providing any funds to this area in 2022. If specific proposals directly related to the Department's remit were received then we would of course consider these on a case by case basis.
