I come back to a comment the Minister of State made about the additional hours. He said:

... all workers in every sector of the economy be given additional hours on request, unless the employer can prove severe financial difficulties. [My problem is with the next bit.] Under this Bill, employees could keep asking for more hours every six months.

That is not stated in Deputy Cullinane's Bill. I would appreciate if the Minister of State could show me that. I have read the Bill and it clearly does not state that. It states that people will get the hours they actually worked previously and not that they will get extra hours. They will get hours that they have proven they have worked over that number of months. The Minister of State is claiming they could then look for extra hours every six months. That is not the case. Where is that stated in Deputy Cullinane's Bill?
