No Cork-based projects were among those selected for funding under the Labour Market Activation Fund, 2010. However, a number of projects based elsewhere in the country are providing multi-region programmes that include course places for unemployed people in Cork. As a number of these projects are currently involved in recruiting participants for their programmes, it is not yet possible to quantify the actual number of places that will be filled by unemployed people from Cork City and County.
