Question:

557. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Social Protection if he will consider the extension of the Tús programme in order that community groups and others that are organising events for The Gathering could have an administrator or organiser that could assist the organisation of events in local communities, receive upskilling as a result; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 436 and 557 together.

Tús, the community work placement initiative introduced during 2011, is providing up to 5,000 short-term work opportunities for those who are unemployed. This initiative is being delivered through the network of local development companies and Údarás na Gaeltachta, collectively known as Implementing Bodies. The 5,000 placements are allocated between the individual Implementing Bodies who have been delegated the management of Tús at local level. It is open to any community or voluntary organisation or a collection of such organisation to apply to any Implementing Body if they have identified work placement opportunities, including tasks associated with the organisation of events relating to the Gathering. A list of the Implementing Bodies and where they can be contacted is set out in the table.
