It is understood that the Deputy is referring to the employment of drainage maintenance operatives for seasonal works on the River Maine in County Kerry. The scheduling of seasonal employment is still under consideration. Otherwise, the position remains unchanged since my reply to the Deputy's previous question, No. 263 of 31 January 2012.
