Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

General Scheme of the Industrial Relations (Provisions in Respect of Pension Entitlements of Retired Workers) Bill 2021: Discussion

Ms Sue Shaw:

In fairness, in June 2021 the Minister requested a one-year deferral for detailed analysis and we assumed that that period would be put to use. It took some time for the request for written submissions to come out and the submissions were made promptly by arrangement. I agree that we could have expected to hear back or at least to have some broader consultation. I do not mean this disrespectfully, but asking for a written submission is not a consultation.
