The second page of Eurofound's presentation refers to a European Commission implementation report from 2011 and notes that "Ireland opts for an eighteen month reference period for outstanding pay claims where a number of member states opt for a six month reference period." It refers to the "effect of limiting the minimum pay out to eight weeks [...] where in other countries it is a twelve week minimum guarantee." Will Mr. Hurley give us some practical examples of the impact of this for the benefit of people listening in on this meeting from outside?
