I am advised that FÁS is aware that there are a number of sitting Members of the Houses of the Oireachtas on the Sponsoring Committees of Community Employment (CE) projects. In order to accurately establish and confirm the exact numbers and names, it will be necessary to contact all of the CE Sponsors (over 1,100 Sponsors with at least 7 members on each) through our regional management to ascertain who are currently listed as members of the Sponsoring Committees and whether any of them are Members of the Houses of the Oireachtas. When this information is available I will communicate it directly to the Deputy.
