Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Reactivation of Economy Following Pandemic Restrictions: Discussion
Mr. Neil McDonnell:
I am certainly not in the business of denigrating other people, but we have made the point very simply at the back of our submission to the committee that if that component of LEEF were representative of small business, it would be banging on the table with the committee now about antigen testing in the workplace, understanding the vaccination status of employees, the high cost of housing for employees, the high cost of insurance, defamation reform, perjury, small business rescue under SCARP and affordable examinership. These issues have all been brought to the table of the Government from outside LEEF because they are not priorities for anyone inside LEEF. It is as simple as that.
