Question 522: To ask the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Innovation if his attention has been drawn to the changes regarding FÁS payments that are excluding workers from accessing training by virtue of a circular in January 2010, and which in effect introduces a habitual residency requirement to access training which is contrary to EU Regulation 1612/68; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
