Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 29 June 2016
146. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht if she will continue to provide supports to an Údarás na Gaeltachta client company (details supplied) following the company having had its certified approval to deliver industry specific training withdrawn; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [18751/16]
View answerI understand from Údarás na Gaeltachta that the company referred to by the Deputy has been a valued client and tenant of an tÚdarás since 2009. Údarás na Gaeltachta is aware of the present difficulties that the company has in relation to certification of its core industry specific training courses. I am informed that the management of the company has kept in regular contact with an tÚdarás as the company continues to seek a resolution and that an tÚdarás will endeavour to provide whatever assistance possible, within its existing schemes and rules and regulations, to the company, on an ongoing basis.
I have also been informed that an tÚdarás is hopeful a resolution can be found through an early certification audit and that its client, through a successful audit, can sustain and develop its business in the Donegal Gaeltacht.
