Areas to receive disadvantage funding

Summary

O’Rourke asks which areas will receive resources; Hussey says they are still being considered with educational interests and will be identified as soon as possible.

The question put down by Deputy Flaherty asked the Minister to identify the areas of disadvantage. I accept the Minister's commitment to this but would she specify the areas of disadvantage to which the resources will be put in the coming months? Could we have the precise areas?

Comment on this

As the Deputy is aware, the whole question of the disbursement of funds for disadvantaged areas is being considered very carefully with the educational interests involved and, therefore, we are presently considering what areas will be helped.

Comment on this

When will we know those areas?

Comment on this

As soon as possible.
