89 Deputy Seán Barrett asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills if her attention has been drawn to the damage being done to the future of a college (details supplied) in County Dublin as a result of her decision to cut back on apprentice provision for the academic years 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 which means that 9.6 teachers will lose their jobs, thereby resulting in the discontinuation of many of the established successful courses in a wide range of areas; if her further attention has been drawn to the fact that this is happening when there is growing unemployment in the country, and also when the Department of Social Protection intends taking action against persons in receipt of lone parent allowance and jobseeker’s allowance who refuse to take up further educational courses such as those that are being provided in the college; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
