Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Pre-Budget Submissions: Discussion
4:10 pm
Ms Mary Rose Burke:
Our main focus is that work should reward people, that any disincentives to work or any barriers to taking up work should be removed and that any supports that are needed to move people from welfare into work should be supported. We would certainly look to investing more in JobBridge. That has been successful and we would like to see more places being made available on that. We would very much like to see the focus on getting people from welfare into work.
