Amharc ar fhreagraFunding to support programmes for schools is the responsibility of the Minister for Education and Youth. Separately, and as part of its public health remit, the HSE provides funding to a number of organizations that offer digital support services, including online safety supports. As these are operational matters I have referred the question to the HSE for direct reply to the Deputy.
