Employment Support Services

Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I will definitely follow up on that and if we can provide help and provide alternative employment in Glaslough, that is certainly what we will do, and that is part of the role of Government and its agencies. Generally, the kind of advice and support that we provide people who have lost their jobs are not just about letting them know their welfare entitlements, but that is important too. People are entitled to get redundancy and get their welfare payments, and entitled to know what options they have in terms of education and setting up their own business, but we also try to point people in the right direction in terms of alternative employment, training and all of that. That is not just done through the webinar but through the Intreo service too.
