Michael Finucane
Ceist:58 Mr. Finucane asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if she will consider that the rigidity of the three year limit on participants in the community employment scheme (details supplied) in County Limerick will seriously impact on the current numbers employed in the programme; her views on whether there should be recognition by making an exception in view of the fact participants on the programme are homeless and have experienced addiction problems; if exemptions are made in other locations; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
