Seamus Brennan
Question:155 Mr. S. Brennan asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment his views on the cut-back of recruitment of apprentices to semi-State companies; his further views on whether semi-State companies have traditionally recruited more apprentices than they need for their own purposes in order to develop craft skills for the community; the current status of negotiations to develop a new scheme of apprenticeship specifically oriented towards the work requirements of semi-State companies; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
