I can inform the Deputy that there are currently 6 Youth Diversion Projects (YDPs) operating in Co. Limerick.

In 2019, 3 YDPs in Ballynanty, Irishtown (including Henry Street Outreach) and Kings Island were combined to form Limerick Youth Service YDP.

The attached table sets out the amount of funding allocated to each project for 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, and shows the Garda Divisions and Districts within which the YDPs are located.

Figures for 2022 detail additional allocations approved in June in relation to an expansion of services under the Youth Justice Strategy 2021 – 2027.
