Question:145 Mr. Flood asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if she will permit training programmes, such as that provided by Tallaght Community Training Workshop, to enrol asylum seekers in the 15 to 25 years age group who are resident in the country for less than 12 months; if those who are not already in receipt of supplementary benefit will be paid the appropriate training allowance with the objectives of facilitating their integration into society and the acquiring of skills which will enable them to take up employment; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
