This report summarises the findings of a survey of early learning and care (ELC) and school age childcare (SAC) settings in receipt of the meals grant, which has been funded to date by the Department of Social Protection (DSP). The primary aims of this survey were to evaluate the implementation and impact of the DSP-funded meals grants on service providers; and to determine a focus for future funding. The survey presented in this report was conducted in May 2022 by the DCEDIY Research and Evaluation Unit (REU) Statistics team, in cooperation with the DCEDIY Early Years, Policy & Strategy team.
