Michael Ring (Mayo, Fine Gael)

We will not get into it again unless the Minister wants to. There are 67 people in place to deal with people who are unemployed, meaning each facilitator must deal with almost 7,000 people. That is unacceptable. Will the Minister provide more staff under the Croke Park agreement by moving people to this area? People are unemployed and we must get them back into the workplace. How will extra staff be used to deal with the issue, as it is unacceptable for each facilitator to have to deal with almost 7,000 unemployed people?
