I congratulate everybody here today on their presentations. As far as I am concerned the future of our youth is in great hands. As labour market conditions vary from country to country, Ireland cannot simply copy the Scandinavian model. Mr. McKeon said the Department would take on board the better points of that model. What EU funding will be available to Ireland and what is the latest date for application for this funding? Also, for how much does the Department propose to apply? Like Senator Moran, I would like to know the anticipated cost per participant on the scheme.
