Seán Crowe (Dublin South West, Sinn Fein)

Will the Minister accept that low-paid jobs are not necessarily a good way for lone parents to take their families out of poverty? Part of the problem is down to the quality of jobs they are offered. I have been informed that lone parents under this scheme would be given priority access to county child care committees. However, there is no system in place in prioritising these committees. Is this part of the work to be done in the next several months?
