We are very conscious that people have to attend courses. The purpose in some cases is to reach those who most need to be given opportunities to find employment. This relates to the Youth Guarantee which is used in some cases and so on. We really want to reach the people in question to ensure they are attending and benefiting from courses From the Department's perspective, we put pressure on the education and training boards through SOLAS to track people.

To my knowledge, the ETBs ensure people's attendance is monitored but if I can obtain further information on that, I will provide it to the Deputy.
