Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection

Report on Participation Income for Family Carers: Discussion

Professor Mary Murphy:

I am joking. I appreciate that and I agree. The rules the Deputy was talking about as regards being available for and genuinely seeking work have been very negative in people's lives. They are not necessary. Most people, as the Deputy said, are looking to get work and we do not need to police that activity to the degree we are doing so at the moment. I agree with him.
