The Labour Court recommended that Fás reinstate its Term Time Leave Scheme in a recommendation dated 17 September 2010. Services Industrial Professional Technical Union said withdrawing the scheme had caused hardship for members balancing work and school holidays. Fás said a public-service hiring moratorium prevented it from recruiting temporary staff to cover vacancies, and that service needs and staffing pressures remained. The Court recommended that Fás make every effort to accommodate staff while maintaining services and apply promptly for an exemption from the moratorium to recruit temporary cover.
