Youth funding is administered on behalf of my Department by the 16 Education and Training Boards. Youth funding is allocated on an annual basis to each Education and Training Board for youth services within each ETB functional area rather than on a county-by-county basis. The youth funding provided to Waterford Wexford Education and Training Board for the period 2020 to 2025 for both counties is outlined the table below.

Youth funding allocations made available to Waterford Wexford Education and Training Board over the period 2020 to 2025.
