Employment Schemes

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

EmployAbility services provide sustainable employment opportunities for people with a long-term illness, injury or disability and support them into employment. There is currently supposed to be a process to EmployAbility service contracts put out to tender, similar to the tendering of local employment services and job club services over the past two years. I urge the Minister to avoid changing the payment model for EmployAbility under the upcoming tender, which was due to be published in April. When can we expect it?
