Review of FÁS scheme exclusions

Summary

De Rossa asked the Minister to establish how many people were excluded and consider changing the rules; Ahern agreed to correspond, adding that a directive had resolved the separate smallholders’ issue.

In justice is being done to a number of people. Will the Minister consider finding out exactly how many are being excluded and adjusting the regulations so as to include them? Perhaps the Minister might correspond with me about this matter and let me know what he comes up with?

Comment on this

Of course. I do not think that we will reach the question relating to the small holders but I gave an undertaking to Deputy Connaughton and others that I would resolve that problem and we have issued a directive in that regard.
