Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 30 September 2014
157. Deputy Mick Wallace asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection the position in relation to enhanced redundancy payments in respect of a person (details supplied); the reason this payment has not yet been provided; the steps she is taking to expedite this matter; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [36875/14]
View answerThe person concerned was employed by Mid-West Cavan Community Employment Scheme as a Community Employment Supervisor between 25th September 1995 and 13th September 2002. I understand that the employment of the person concerned ceased in September 2002 and subsequently in 2003 the employer, Mid-West Cavan Community Employment Scheme, agreed to pay statutory redundancy. The normal employer/employee relationship applies between a Community Employment Supervisor and their employer and as the payment of enhanced redundancy is a matter for the employer, the person concerned should therefore be referred to their former employer, Mid-West Cavan Community Employment Scheme.
