Mr. Michael Harty:
I accept that. However, zero-hour contracts are also used by section 39 funded home help organisations. There is a general perception that private providers pay low wages. Private providers tend to structure wages based on the complexity of the cases in respect of which they provide care. In some cases, private providers pay up to €16 per hour.
