Vol. 517 No. 1

Written Answers. - Teleworking Scheme.

John Bruton

Ceist:

97 Mr. J. Bruton asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment when she will introduce teleworking operations into the mainstream public service employments under her aegis in accordance with the commitment given by the Government in its Programme for Prosperity and Fairness; and if she will make a statement on the changes required in each of the agencies under her aegis to fulfil this commitment by the Government. [9275/00]

I fully support the introduction of teleworking as a family-friendly initiative, which has considerable potential to tap new sources of energy and creativity.

My Department and its agencies are currently examining ways of implementing teleworking.
