There was some discussion about the community employment scheme, which is an issue of concern to everyone. However, having regard to the proposed cut of 5,000 in the number of participants in that scheme, set against the 36,000 work permits issued to non-nationals last year and an expected similar number this year, there is a need for some balance to be brought into the situation. The Minister's figures project a 5.5% unemployment level, which is equivalent to full employment if we have to invite some 36,000 foreign nationals to take up jobs which, for one reason or another, we are unable to fill otherwise. I again compliment the Minister and the Minister of State on the budget and I commend it to the House.
