A Kerry TD is calling on the Government to reverse its plans for the new Regional Employment Service.

Sinn Féin TD Pa Daly says he supports North, East and West Kerry Development (NEWKD) and South Kerry Development Partnership's (SKDP) criticism of the proposal to replace their employment services.

He says privatisation does not work in health or housing and it won't work here.

Deputy Daly says it'll lead to job losses in both Kerry services, which have helped thousands of people progress into employment.

He adds that Kerry people will be deprived of a walk-in, person-centred and community-based employment service replaced by a profit driven process.
