Siptu members working with the FAI have condemned the organisation’s decision to shut a youth training scheme at Oriel Park in Dundalk — a move that cuts two community officer roles and leaves 28 participants without a programme just days before it was due to begin.
The latest decision comes following the recent closure of two courses in Cork.
