Donnelly asked the Minister for Education and Skills if his attention has been drawn to the fact that eligibility conditions that would otherwise apply to support from the €500 million annual budget of the European Globalisation Fund can be substituted to allow for the funding of programmes for redundant workers in small labour markets, in circumstances that are exceptional or where redundancies arising have a serious impact on employment and on the local economy; the reason this exceptional provision has never to date been invoked to benefit redundant Irish workers; if it is now his intention to invoke it; and the circumstances and time-frame in which this is likely to happen.
