Clare Developer Makes Fresh Calls For Apprenticeship Supports Ahead Of Lifting Of Eviction Ban

A Clare developer is making fresh calls for the government to provide adequate financial supports for builders taking on apprentices. It comes as the moratorium on no fault evictions is set to end this week, after A Sinn Fein motion calling for the ban to be lifted was defeated last night, just hours after the coalition comfortably survived a confidence vote.10,000 apprentices are due to be recruited every year until 2025 in order to streamline the process, but Ciarán Breen of Ciarán Breen Construction believes the financial risk of taking on an apprentice currently outweighs the reward.
