The report also mentions that one in six older people is in low-paid employment. The other issue is that of the youth rate. What is the commission's thinking with respect to the youth rate? It is preparing a report for the Minister on that, but where does it stand at present? What is the commission's thinking on the youth rate? Should it be abolished completely and brought up to the minimum rate? Is that what we are looking at?
