Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions
Tendering of the Social Inclusion and Community Activation Programme: Discussion
4:00 pm
Ms Sian Muldowney:
The programmes in the United Kingdom make their money based on how long people stay in employment. It, therefore, makes sense for them to focus on those who are already at the gates of the labour market. Only 48,000 people have found employment through these programmes in the United Kingdom. The Australian or Dutch Government has decided not to continue down this path because it is not working.
