Nicole Ryan (SF), Administrative Panel

It was a teacher in Macroom Youthreach. I thank the Minister for clarifying that. The biggest issue with Youthreach centres across Cork and maybe more generally is that there is not a clear guideline so the information is fed down clearly and they can understand what course they can be paid for. As the Minister said, some Youthreach centres are starting to put on level 5 courses and I do not think that issue is widely known across Youthreach. Some more clarification on that would be fantastic and I would be delighted to work with the Minister to relay that information to the Youthreach centres across my area.
