35. Deputy Louise O'Reilly asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government his plans to reintroduce apprenticeship schemes in local authorities. [18501/16]
View answerThe matter of apprenticeships in local authorities is subject to ongoing discussion at the Local Authority National Council (LANC), which is the sectoral management/union forum for discussing industrial relations matters pertaining to the sector as a whole. My Department is positively disposed to apprenticeships in local authorities and will support the outcome of the ongoing process at the LANC.
The specific content of any apprenticeship scheme is a matter for the relevant Government Department.
