Better Planning for Local Childcare Provision: Motion Seanad Éireann — 2024-07-17 ============================================================ Marie Sherlock (LAB), Labour Panel -----is quite high. I apologise to the Acting Chair but this is important. We have to see real investment. We saw the EU structural funds in the 1990s come in and I see it mentioned over the doors of some of the community early-years services in the inner city. They came in with serious money to build early-years services. We need the State doing the same. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
