Pilot Social Inclusion Unit.

Pilot Social Inclusion Units were established in seven local authorities for a three-year period (2002-2004). A Social Inclusion Unit was in operation in Dublin City Council prior to the commencement of the pilot units, but has also received funding under the pilot scheme. The D/EH&LG provided total funding of €3.1 million for the establishment and operation of the units for the three year duration of the pilot scheme. In June 2004, independent consultants were engaged to undertake a review and evaluation of the pilot programme. A report is due to be presented to the D/EH&LG in October 2004.
