I move amendment No. 8:

In page 42, before section 29, to insert the following new section:

29.--The Minister shall, within 3 months of enactment of this Act, publish a strategy on how he will reform the practices of An Foras to assist people to get back to work.".

I will not rehearse what was said in our previous lengthy discussions on FÁS because I am aware that people are worried about the state of the roads and anxious to get home. However, it is reasonable to ask the Minister to lay before the House a strategy to assist people to get back to work.
