Billy Kelleher (Cork North Central, Fianna Fail)

The issue has been raised in correspondence by a number of Deputies and I will follow up on it. As the Deputy said, these people are fully trained and they have an entire set of skills but they fall foul in the academic area. The director general of FÁS is examining this issue. I will contact him to let him know the Deputy raised this in the House.
