My Department provides a range of activation supports catering for long-term unemployed jobseekers and those most distant from the labour market to secure and sustain full-time paid employment. These supports include Tús, Community Employment, Rural Social Scheme, Local Employment Services and the JobPath service. The following table shows the number of participants currently engaged in these schemes and services.
I hope this information is of assistance to the Deputy.
