Working Conditions and Skills Shortages in Tourism and Hospitality Sector: Discussion
Mr. Denis Hynes:
A High Court challenge was made. There was a veto and it was agreed by the Government of the day that the JLC would be parked for hospitality but the security and contract cleaning sectors, for example, progressed. That was a very sad day for everybody involved with hospitality. We have been playing catch-up since. We have been trying to get the process back on track and working tirelessly behind the scenes through Mr. Berney's office at the Irish Congress of Trade Unions. We have not been fortunate as of yet in securing a JLC.
