John McGuinness: You are welcome, Deputy O'Connor. The Minister, Deputy Donohoe, has been before this committee many times when we have spoken about report 42 and the payment to public servants under that category. This was progressed with the Workplace Relations Commission. Agreement was reached that these retired people from the HSE would be paid but they are not being paid. It has been stalled within...

John McGuinness: There is a similar situation with section 38 and section 39 workers. Pensioners being paid by those organisations are reliant on the HSE, presumably, to process increases in their pensions. That is not happening either. When I ask about former SOS employees in Kilkenny who were employed under one of these sections, it is up to the employer to pay them but the employer is reliant on the...

I remind members not to name or identify anyone outside of the Houses. They are covered by full privilege if they are here on the campus of Leinster House.

Martin Browne: It is the graveyard shift.

Equitable Beef Pricing Bill 2020: Second Stage [Private Members] (24 Oct 2024)

James Lawless: I thank Deputy Browne. I thank Deputy Tóibín for introducing the Bill and provoking the debate. He has attempted to address a significant issue. I have given reasons, which I will recap, as to why the Government is not in a position to support the Bill but, notwithstanding that, I commend the Deputy on his initiative in bringing it forward. I listened with interest to Deputy...

Equitable Beef Pricing Bill 2020: Second Stage [Private Members] (24 Oct 2024)

Peadar Tóibín: The Government is missing two massive points. First, it is missing the point that the market is already distorted. I have a degree in economics. Anybody who analyses the food market in this country will tell you that it is, by definition, a distorted market. It is not unusual for the Government to preside over distorted markets. Much of the economy, such as the insurance industry,...

Equitable Beef Pricing Bill 2020: Second Stage [Private Members] (24 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: I appreciate the introduction of this Bill. For too long, our farmers have had to navigate a marketplace that is not designed with their needs in mind, while at the same time having to comply with measures that are outdated and schemes designed and rolled out by the Department in a manner that can, at best, be described as inefficient. Farmers are workers too. They are involved in one...

Equitable Beef Pricing Bill 2020: Second Stage [Private Members] (24 Oct 2024)

James Lawless: I thank Deputy Tóibín for bringing this Bill forward and for his passionate contribution to the debate. I have listened with interest to his setting out of his stall and I have taken careful note of what he has said. We can all agree that farmers should receive a fair and equitable price for their produce. The programme for Government recognises the economic and social role of...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla (Atógáil) - Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Coastal Protection (24 Oct 2024)

Thomas Pringle: The crux of the problem is that Donegal County Council says that if it does this work that is funded by the OPW, it will have to maintain it in the future and the responsibility will be on it to do that. It says it will not do that for private property, as private land is affected too. There is a public walkway across the land, which has been concreted by the council to facilitate the...
