I propose to take Questions Nos. 541 and 542 together.

The funding provided to Education and Training Boards (ETBs) for youth work services, broken down by ETB area, for each of the years 2014 to 2024 can be found in the table below. Please note: Allocations are made to 16 ETB areas, not local authorities, therefore, it's not possible to provide information specific to a particular local authority area.

Due to the ongoing process of ETB drawdowns, the exact amount for 2024 is not yet available.

* Prior to 2019, the CDETB received all funding allocations for Youth Work Ireland and Involve programs which they redistributed to other ETBs across Ireland. In 2019, there was a shift in how these funds were allocated. Instead of going through the CDETB, funding for Youth Work Ireland and Involve is now distributed directly to each ETB. This resulted in a decrease in CDETB's overall funding for these programs. For reference, between 2018 and 2019, CDETB lost €3,609,649 in Youth Work Ireland funding and €389,037 in Involve funding. These amounts now go directly to the other ETBs. This clarifies the reason behind the apparent drop in CDETB's allocation. Between 2017 and 2019 total funding to ETBs increased from €45 million to over €48 million.
