The programme for Government contains proposals to support a jobs initiative which will provide additional places in training, work experience and educational opportunities for those who are out of work. This will include an internship scheme under the remit of the Department of Social Protection. Further details regarding the jobs initiative and an internship scheme will be announced shortly by the Government.
