Ms Fiona Dunne:

I reiterate what everybody has been saying, namely, that collective bargaining is hugely important. The JLC is in place but it is being ignored by employers. The forum is already there and we just need to get on with it. The quickest action the committee can take is probably to push for that, as well as collective bargaining and all the other things we do not have in terms of trade union access, recognition and ensuring people are not intimidated if they want to join a union. We have given a lot of recommendations, a couple of which would be quite sweeping across the sector and could be done quickly.
