In line with the requirements of the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Innovation and Department of Finance, FÁS discontinued funding for the Carrick-on-Suir Jobs Club on 21st November 2008 because it was unable to achieve the nationally agreed targets set up for these programmes. The two staff members were consequently entitled to a redundancy payment. The amount for both staff members was calculated and available to them. I understand that one staff member has accepted the redundancy payment. In regard to the other staff member FÁS has advised that the payment remains available should he decide to accept same.
