Kathleen Funchion (SF), Carlow-Kilkenny

My question regards the announcement that was made in the budget a couple of weeks ago about the AIM programme and the additional provisions. I think an extra €7 million has been allocated to the AIM programme. I would like some more information on exactly how that will be allocated. Is the plan to extend it past the early childhood care and education, ECCE hours, or what exactly is the plan for it?
