The person concerned has completed 3 years on a Community Employment Scheme (CE) which is the maximum amount for a mainstream participant, as per the government strategy of July 2017. The participant has asked for their case to be re-examined for an extension to cover a fourth year on C.E. Merchants Quay project.
Under the Programme Framework for CE Drug Rehabilitation Schemes, three years is the maximum allowed for Support Workers. However, I will ask my officials to review this case having regard to the circumstances outlined.
I hope this clarifies the position for you.
