264. To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government the reason the next move community employment scheme, which has been successfully run in County Sligo for several years, was suddenly withdrawn with effect from 3 July 2015 and applicants for the course have been advised that this course has ceased because of financial cutbacks.

I am advised that the initiative referred to in the Question has not been funded by my Department. It should be noted that a similar business start-up training course was funded under the LEADER elements of the Rural Development Programme 2007-2014 until December 2014 in Co. Sligo.
