Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Deputy Mary Coughlan)

I recently appointed a new board of FÁS under the terms of the Labour Services (Amendment) Act 2009. The Board has not yet had its first meeting. I have however already met with the Chair of the Board and will meet with the full Board as required during the course of the year.

Question No. 156 answered with Question No. 107.
