The person concerned is currently employed on a Community Employment (CE) Scheme under the Part Time Integration Option and is due to finish on 26 June 2013. He does not have the required three year history in order to be eligible for participation for a further year.

Under the current guidelines, to be considered for re-entry to CE once you have exited, a period of 12 months need to have elapsed since any previous participation and the person must have been in receipt of a qualifying payment for that 12 month period.
