Okay, 9,000 could be serious. I have some questions for Mr. McCoy. There is commentary around the €350 pandemic unemployment payment being higher than pay received by many workers in the State. This has brought low pay into focus. Would Mr. McCoy agree that this highlights a massive problem with low pay, low-hour contracts and the gig economy?
