Question:
To ask the Minister for Communities why the Women Involved in Community Transformation programme contract has not been re-tendered or changed to a grant aided programme.

Answer:

An ‘open call’ process launched on 14 September 2021 for a new grant-funded ‘Developing Women in the Community’ programme. This new programme aims to provide women with the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to become influencers and take on roles such as leadership and decision making in their communities.
