‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Jobsearch Programme. Courses for illiterate Jobsearch participants
Summary
Colley asked for Jobsearch courses suited to people with poor education, particularly those who are illiterate. Ahern agreed to ask AnCO to consider special schemes.
Will the Minister clarify what type of Jobsearch courses are being provided? Will he agree, as I suggested in my speech on the Estimate, to provide some specific courses for those with very poor education, particularly those who are illiterate?
Comment on this
I have taken up the point the Deputy has made. I know she raised this matter eight days ago on the Estimate debate. It was a good point to assist people who perhaps would be reluctant to come forward to the scheme. I shall ask AnCO to look into the matter to see what special schemes could be devised to assist in the matter.
