Local Training Initiatives are managed and operated by local groups and the staff are employed by these groups. Responsibility for funding Local Training Initiatives has recently moved from SOLAS to the each of the Education and Training Boards.

The Department has issued a sanction to fund enhanced redundancy for former employees of Local Training Initiatives where appropriate. I understand that the Limerick and Clare Education and Training Board is in the process of making such arrangements in this particular case.
