Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 4 November 2015
48. Deputy Dan Neville asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection her views on correspondence (details supplied) regarding a community employment scheme; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [38611/15]
View answerThe person concerned is currently working on a CE Scheme and was recruited under the Part Time Job Option. She will have completed 360 weeks (7 years) on CE at her current finish date and, unfortunately, it will not be possible to retain her beyond that date.
An officer from my Department has met with her and explained the eligibility requirements. Her supervisor on the CE Scheme will also be supporting her with the next steps following the completion of her employment on the CE scheme.
She may also wish to contact her local Intreo Office to discuss other options that may be open to her at that time.
