‹ Order of Business Apprenticeships Bill
Summary
Deputy Walsh seeks an apprenticeships Bill to address skilled-labour shortages; the Taoiseach says consultation responses are being considered and hopes to complete it before summer.
There is a shortage of skilled labour in certain sectors of the economy. Given the important role the construction industry can play in our recovery by creating additional employment, when does the Taoiseach expect to see the publication of an apprenticeships Bill? This will have an important role in attracting new apprentices into the market.
