As Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills I do not have a role in the administration of individual cases. The administration of individual cases is a day-to-day matter for FÁS as part of its responsibility under the Labour Services Act 1987.

Eligibility to participate on a CE scheme is linked to the length of time a person is in receipt of Social Welfare benefits. However, the local FÁS office assists all jobseekers who wish to attend a training course.
