Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

There has, without question, been an exponential increase in funding towards childcare and a reduction in cost for parents in particular. There was a 25% reduction last year and by the end of this year, there will be a further 25% reduction. I am not familiar with the details of the individual case the Deputy raises regarding a Discoveries crèche. I will talk to the Minister for children in this respect and will ask him to engage with the Deputy on the details of that particular case.
