Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection
EU Employment Legislation and JobPath: Discussion (Resumed)
12:15 pm
Mr. John McKeon:
I might ask Seetec to comment on the supports they provide to people who have travel costs but what I will say is that is a problem we have ourselves in our offices. We have 60 offices around the country. People are required to attend those offices to sign on and all of that. In many respects the two providers have around 100 to 110 offices between them which is more than the Department itself has. The issues of travel are with us and the JobPath providers do provide financial support to people who have to travel and they can comment on it.
