314. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Social Protection the supervisory arrangements for the proposed 2,500 extra places on the TÚS scheme and the 2000 on community employment; the way these places will be allocated; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [56266/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs part of the budget package for my Department, I intend to extend the number of opportunities available on Tús by another 2,500 and community employment by 2,000. The allocation of these places and related supervisory provision will be in line with existing methodologies for these programmes and to ensure consistency with Pathways to Work and the recently published financial review of community employment.
