The additional cost to the Department of introducing 4,000 additional Community Employment (CE) places in 2016 is estimated to be approximately €14m. This amount reflects the additional cost of €20 per week paid to participants over and above what they would receive while in receipt of a social welfare payment, in addition to supervisory costs, materials and training costs normally incurred on CE.
