Sub-Minimum Rates of the National Minimum Wage: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. Diarmaid Smyth:

The macro or economy-wide effects of the changes appear to be low, certainly from the United Kingdom experience. On the sectoral effects in the United Kingdom or the supports, we would have to look into that and get back to the Deputy. Likewise for the other countries who have moved in the direction of removing the rates. We would have to look into the data and get back to the Deputy.
