I propose to take Questions Nos. 310 and 311 together.

The number of community employment (CE) scheme projects for each of the years 2012 to 2016, by county, in tabular form is provided in the following table 1. In addition, the total number of participants for each of the years 2012 to 2016 is provided in table 2.

Details of the projects that have amalgamated for each of the years 2012 to 2016 is being compiled and will be forwarded to the Deputy as soon as it is available.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
