Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection

Scrutiny of the Pensions (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2017: Irish Association of Pension Funds and Irish Congress of Trade Unions

Mr. Jerry Moriarty:

Absolutely. Those companies would have had the opportunity to close those schemes down. Many of them feel strongly that, as part of the overall benefit structure they offer to employees, it is important enough to continue to offer that. I take the point. There are many other things they would prefer to be spending the money on in terms of making the company more competitive.
