My Department is fully committed to ensuring that members of the general public are fully aware of the supports and services available from my Department. This includes employment activation services and supports.

The total expenditure on such activities from 2012 to 2016 was €337,000 and is detailed in the following tables.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
