Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Strengthening the Start-up Community: Discussion

2:50 pm

Mr. Sean O'Sullivan:

The Chairman also asked about the going rate in the part-time jobs initiative, which I guess was a programme in the 1990s. I am not familiar with that programme. It sounds as if it was getting towards the place I was recommending in terms of giving dignity to people to work in exchange for the benefit.

The Chairman asked another question about the youth fund. I will ask Ms Wendy Gray to respond to that.
