81 Mr. Wall asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if she will investigate the proposals for the social economy programme guidelines; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [4181/01]
The framework for the Social Economy Programme, which was agreed by the Social Economy Monitoring Committee, sets out the objectives of the programme, eligibility criteria, the links between the national and local structures of the programme and formalises and defines the working relationships, roles and responsibilities of the different actors at local level.
Particulars of the eligibility criteria, including a provision that allows for up to 10% of the total number of grant-aided persons to be exempt from the normal eligibility criteria, are set out in annex 2 of the framework document.
