First 100 days

Again - we have language labs in our colleges not used over the Summer.

Why doesn't the government show a bit of iniatative?
 
I find it crazy that there is no massive push to re-skill or re-train.
 
So cork let me get this right, the previous government is responsible for the suspension of these training courses, members of the current government are raising this as an issue to be addressed, and you're disappointed in the current government for the fact the training courses are suspended? Perhaps you need to re-evaluate who you are disappointed with here!
 
0.06% was taken off private pensions by this government to fund training.

Yet in an area that the current government sees jobs growth - they are no courses in the area for those without work.

I know many without work that are on massive waiting lists for courses.

Yet we have training centres being mot-balled.
 

Are you trying to set a record for repeating the same point over and over? Why don't you address the issue that the mot-balling of anything has nothing to do with the new Government of 100 days and everything to do with FF.

I think blaming won't create any solutions for those without work.

But after putting a levy on private pensions raising 400 million - for training.

Training facilities should be utilised.

I would even get courses in the colleges over the Summer months.

I know many who are without work & putting down down is hard.

So, it is now up to govt. to use the 400 million they took from private pensions for training.
 
Looks like FG have performed a bit of a U-turn on cutting the number of TD's. Instead of cutting the number by 20 , they are saying the can only cut it by between 6 to 13. This is because the Constitution requires a TD per 20,000 to 30,000 people.

Why not hold a referendum to change the constitution to reflect this? It could be done on the same day as the Judges pay issue.

Disappointing alright Shawady, looks like FG are going to hide behind the constitution to save a few jobs rather than bite the bullet and do what is right (and what they promised to do). As you say, a referendum on the matter could easily be held on the same day as the Judges pay issue.
 
Before the election they were going to introduce a partial list system and reform the whole electoral process.

Talk is cheap.
