I wish to refer the Deputy to Parliamentary Question 145 of 22 October, 2008 on this subject. As stated previously, the Programme for Government provides for a Community Pay Back Scheme which will build on the Community Service Scheme currently the subject of a value for money and policy review which I am pleased to inform the Deputy is nearing completion. The findings of the report will influence how we will progress the community pay back scheme commitment.
