The matter of a pension for Community Employment Scheme Supervisors is currently being considered by a high level working group, set up under the auspices of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (DPER).

This Group includes officials from the Departments of Public Expenditure, Social Protection and Environment, Community and Local Government, as well as from Pobal and the two unions representing CE supervisors - SIPTU and IMPACT. The work of the group is on-going.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
