John McGuinness: I know the castle is positive about it because of the association between the document and Cartoon Saloon. I am interested in bringing the document for display in Kilkenny Castle. It would be a great way to publicise the castle and the association with Cartoon Saloon, which is of international renown.

John McGuinness: We spoke about Bennettsbridge Garda station. I see much work has been done on it. Will it go back to the Garda for use? Is there another proposal for the use of the property?

John McGuinness: Yes. I looked at that river during the really heavy rain and without that flood relief scheme, it would have flooded nearly to the same level as the 1947 flood, which came up to the windows in John Street. Yet all the centre and beyond was saved.

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...

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...
