I will turn to the national pay agreements. I met with a former section 39 organisation recently. Their staff are still not benefiting from the pay increases that were agreed through the Workplace Relations Commission, WRC. St. Luke's Home in Cork is a not-for-profit organisation that was formerly paid through section 39. It is now paid through the HSE services and the National Treatment Purchase Fund, NTPF. Its staff are still not benefiting from the increases in wages and so on that have been agreed. Is Mr. Moloney aware that some former section 39 organisations are still not benefiting from the national pay agreement?
