Community Employment Schemes
Dail Éireann — 2023-12-07
============================================================

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

I will ask my question. It relates to the rural social scheme. The issue of community employment supervisors has progressed, which is welcome. At that stage, the Minister of State said there was a need to look at all schemes, which would include the rural social scheme and Tús. There is currently a pay claim with the Department in respect of people on the rural social scheme, who are on 15% less than those on community employment schemes.
