I propose to take Questions Nos. 313, 350 and 351 together.

Funding has been allocated for enhanced redundancy of community employment scheme supervisors in the past. To be considered an application for enhanced redundancy must first be made by the employer, Mid-West Cavan Community Employment Project. In this case, no application has been received by this Department from this employer to date.

The circumstances of termination of employment are a matter between the employee and the employer who in this case is Mid-West Cavan Community Employment Project.
