Deputy Higgins should speak to the young people who have gone through the JobBridge system. The vast majority have had a very satisfactory experience and have used it to better themselves. That is what it was intended for. There will always be numbers who might not have got the best from the scheme in terms of where they were employed or what they actually did. However, the point was that young qualified people, people able to perform certain tasks and upskill themselves, were unable to get those opportunities because they could not get a job. That is what the JobBridge scheme is about.
