As the Deputy will be aware, Tús is an active labour market programme designed to provide long term unemployed people with an opportunity to engage in useful work within their communities.
In relation to the pay issue raised by the Deputy, the matter is currently the subject of a Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) conciliation process as you will appreciate, while this process is ongoing, I am not in a position to comment further, other than to say that I am hopeful that an agreed and fair resolution can be reached through this conciliation process.
