Before we conclude, I wish to refer back to the issue of auto-enrolment raised by Mr. Donohoe. I assure him that this committee has been working on and will review the development of auto-enrolment. We have also been working on the issue of bogus self-employment because people who are in that category may fail to benefit from auto-enrolment. Those lines of work are running in parallel.

I thank Ms McElwee, Mr. Donohoe, Ms Burke, Mr. Murray and Ms Flynn for their attendance. This meeting forms part of the pre-legislative scrutiny process and the issues raised by them have been both helpful and informative. As Deputy O'Dea said, the Bill is not complete and it will be amended as it progresses through the Houses. Amendments may be made by the sponsor of the Bill, members of the Opposition or the Government. We are getting feedback from a range of witnesses from a variety of different perspectives. We specifically set up our meetings to get all views on the issues.

I thank the witnesses and advise members that our next meeting will be on Tuesday, 21 May 2019.
