Answer
My Department has been working with the Irish Department of Education and Skills and the Special EU Programmes Body to appoint a delivery agent for the programme.
This process is nearing completion and the applications process for schools and early years settings is expected to take place early in 2017. Sharing involving early years, schools and youth to school partnerships will then commence later in 2017.
