Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection
Labour Activation Measures: Department of Social Protection
10:00 am
Mr. John McKeon:
I honestly do not think there are any constraints on the Department in this regard. That is my understanding, but I will check the detail of it. What would the alternative be? Would the European Commission really suggest we keep the contract going, even if we do not need it, when unemployment returns to the levels we all hope it will return to?
