The Government will announce radical plans later to get as many long-term unemployed as possible off the live register.
The ‘Pathways to Work’ initiative – which will include a threat to dole payments for those who don’t engage with the system to find a job – will be unveiled by the Taoiseach, Tánaiste and Social Protection Minister.
