Mr. Martin Scattergood:

The Cathaoirleach asked about any advice to give young people. Just find something you are interested in and go with it and you might get a job in it. Even if you do the apprenticeship in that trade, you still have a cert under your belt and you can do something else. Also, the national skills event used to be done in the colleges. Mine was the first year it was done in the RDS. That was just one brilliant show, with all the trades under one roof, and all the colleges could come and take part. From doing it just in a classroom to doing it in the RDS was brilliant.
