Could the Minister provide some clarity on JobPath? A constituent came to my office in recent weeks who is on JobPath. He has been offered three or four jobs which he could not avail of as he does not have a safe pass certificate as the jobs were on construction sites. When he went to JobPath he was told to go to the social welfare office but when he went to the social welfare office he was told he must go to JobPath. As a result, he has lost three of four jobs in recent weeks. Who is responsible for getting a safe pass certificate? Does JobPath pay for it or does the social welfare office pay for it?
