Amendment declared lost.
- Social Welfare Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (16 Oct 2024)
Heather Humphreys: I propose to speak to the three amendments together. I make the same point that I would rather not put requests for reports into legislation. However, I will definitely do one of them if that is all right. I will explain. I recently signed the commencement order confirming that the new jobseeker's pay-related benefit scheme will be available from 31 March. The priority is to launch the...

Heather Humphreys: Overtime.

Seán Sherlock: -----a couple where one person starts to earn overtime and then the carer loses all entitlements. If the Minister could indicate that the interdepartmental group will look at those types of cases where all entitlements are lost by dint of the earning of overtime, that would provide some comfort. Probably just a small number of people are affected by that but they are there nonetheless.

Paul Donnelly: I appreciate that work has been done on it. As the 10% we are talking about still need that support, I will be pressing that amendment.

Heather Humphreys: I have no problem asking the interdepartmental group. I understand what the Deputy is saying there. Overtime is not basic income; it is extra income. If we go into the means-test space, we just look at household income. I will ask the group to look at that. I am not telling the Deputy that he will get the answer he wants, but we will certainly look at it.

Paul Donnelly: I move amendment No. 1: In page 3, between lines 15 and 16, to insert the following: “Report on employer pay-related social insurance rebate 3. The Minister shall, within six months of the passing of this Act, prepare and lay before Dáil Éireann a report on establishing an employer pay-related social insurance rebate scheme to provide support for businesses impacted by...

Heather Humphreys: I thank the Deputy for tabling this amendment. While I understand why Deputies submit requests for reports by way of amendments, I have made the point previously, and will make it again now, that including commitments to produce reports in primary legislation, particularly legislation which is already as complex as the Social Welfare Consolidation Act, is not good practice for us. I...
