The following table shows the name and location of each Community Employment (CE) Scheme in County Louth as well as the number of participants by scheme and the change in the number of participants each year since 2009. It also shows the amount of funding by project for the years 2009, 2010, 2011. Budgets for 2012 will be finalised as soon as the financial review of CE Schemes is completed which is expected in the near future. Officials from the Department will be in touch with CE sponsor organisations once the review is completed. There are no plans locally to change either the number of schemes or the number of participants per scheme. All projects are funded on a year by year basis and will continue to operate subject to the rules of CE. The Deputy should note that supervisors are full-time employees of the sponsoring organisation and can be contacted through their employer.
