85 Deputy Willie Penrose asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the eligibility for the FÁS redundant apprentice rotation scheme; if it is the case that redundant apprentices can apply for work rotation, and FÁS places these apprentices with eligible companies and will contribute €340 per week towards employment costs; the reason there is a condition contained therein, which means that a company is only eligible if it has not laid off an apprentice since January 2007, companies struggling to keep apprentices in employment are not eligible for assistance, and the apprentice must be made redundant before he or she can apply for rotation; if, in this context her attention has been drawn to the fact that the only company which has not laid off an apprentice in the past two years is the ESB; if she will ensure that all apprentices in these situations are given the opportunity of participation; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
