Covid-19 Pandemic Supports
Dail Éireann — 2021-06-15
============================================================

Paschal Donohoe (FG), Dublin Central

I propose to take Questions Nos. 65, 71, 79 to 81,inclusive, 88, 92, 95, 100, 102, 105, 120, 130 and 384 together.
This has been an absolutely vital scheme. I will deal with County Carlow where, to date, under the employment wage subsidy scheme 6,800 employees have participated in the employment wage subsidy scheme. Prior to this, it was the temporary wage subsidy scheme and the number was 8,600. With regard to how much money has been paid out to date under the two programmes, the answer is €82 million, with €38 million on the employment wage subsidy scheme and €44 million on the temporary wage subsidy scheme.
