I accept that but, in the case of Mr. X in Ballyfermot, the Department reviewed it and made a certain decision. JobPath came back and told it that it was not happy with that decision and that it wanted him to stay on JobPath for another 12 months. Mr. X had an opportunity to do a course in social care through a Tús scheme, something he was interested in and something we need in this society. The Department reviewed it and said that Mr. X should be able to go, but JobPath came back and said he could not. This is on the Department's headed notepaper. That is why I am asking Mr. Conlon who is running the show.
