Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

Support for Family Carers on the Island of Ireland: Carers' Cross-Border Consortium

12:10 pm

Some 30,000 people in Northern Ireland care for over 50 hours per week.

I make the commercial argument that they are working for £1 per hour. If there was a factory anywhere in Ireland where employees were being paid just £1 per hour, there would be uproar.
