Mary Hanafin (Dún Laoghaire, Fianna Fail)

Responsibility for the partnerships lies with the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs. If the Deputy tables a question to him, she will get that information. In so many areas, we talk about trying to cut out duplication and agencies overlapping. This is an example of where those agencies and groups will work in a co-ordinated way with young people so that more of them can be facilitated. We will do that through the partnerships, the agencies, FÁS and our own facilitators.
