National Development Plan: Motion (Resumed)
4:00 pm
Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)
A number of Deputies criticised the proposal to reduce the allocation for FÁS apprenticeships. However, this measure is a recognition of the reality that there will be a lower demand for apprenticeships as a result of the downturn in the new housing sector. I remind Deputies that FÁS schemes are demand-led.
