MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, November 08, 2010

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor R. Dowds

How many apprentices can South Dublin County Council place on the FAS Redundant Apprentice Rotation Scheme and what type of positions can be offered?

REPLY:

In relation to the FAS Apprentice Scheme, South Dublin County Council will be in a position to offer four placements in the areas of plumbing, carpentry and painting. In addition to this the Council will facilitate on a rolling basis at least four 12 week placements for individuals who have completed their apprenticeship but need a 12 week placement to comply with requirements for final certification. The local FAS office are submitting relevant CV's of local unemployed apprentices to the Council's Human Resources Department to enable placements to progress in a short timeframe. It is expected that the first placements will commence within the next few weeks.
