Mr. John McKeon:
The companies will have received the registration fee for each individual twice, which is approximately €311 each time. The issue is that the service we want to provide to people is a case management employment advisory service. It is a service that we should provide to all jobseekers on a continuous basis. Should people who have been on JobPath but have not obtained jobs just be left alone and ignored? While they have finished JobPath, they have not gone on after six months to community employment, training or the local employment services, but they are on the live register.
