Question 633: To ask the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs the parts of FÁS that will come under his responsibility; if any legislative change will be required; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14673/10]

As the Deputy will be aware, the Taoiseach recently announced the restructuring of a number of Departments and agencies in order

- to group functions whose combination is more appropriate to the country's current priorities;

- to ensure greater coherence and produce more efficient delivery; and

- to underline the priority issues for this Government in a way that mobilises a broad response.

I do not anticipate that any of the functions of FÁS will transfer to my Department on foot of this restructuring.
