The Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (DCEDIY) has commissioned RSM to undertake an evaluation of the Little Baby Bundle pilot scheme. The aim of this evaluation is to provide independent evidence to inform policy and delivery decisions for a national roll-out, including an assessment of the effectiveness and efficiency of the pilot processes. As part of this evaluation, RSM will be gathering information through online surveys with parents that received a Baby Bundle.
The Irish Government is the data controller for the research. The information collected during the project will be included in a report published on the Irish Government website and possibly in other publications by RSM and the Irish Government.
Your participation in this evaluation is completely voluntary. However, your views and experiences are important to help inform future policies.
