496. To ask the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth whether there is any capital funding that a family centre in Clondalkin that receives funding from Tusla can apply for to finance a new build; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [28536/25]

In relation to capital funding, I wish to inform the Deputy that neither my Department nor Tusla have capital funding to develop Family Resource Centre-type capital infrastructure projects, including delivering new facilities. Tusla does not have a dedicated budget for capital or building works for third party organisations.

I would suggest, in relation to any proposed new-builds, that the local County or City Council be considered as a starting point in the context of capital funding.
