Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 July 2024
1621. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the number of persons who attained a green certificate qualification in each of the past ten years and to date in 2024. [31156/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department does not collate statistics on the number of persons who obtain the Green Cert.
The Green Cert is delivered by a number of different education providers from across the further education system including Teagasc, which operates under the aegis of my Department, some Employment and Training Boards (ETBs), and a small number of private providers.
Insofar as my Department is concerned, we work in tandem with Teagasc to maximise participation in their Green Cert programme. I have asked Teagasc to directly provide the Deputy with yearly statistics on completions over the past 10 years and to date in 2024.
