Gabhaim buíochas le Mr. Hanley. I will return to the issue of the living wage and the Low Pay Commission. Even in Deputy Gogarty's contribution there, it became apparent that it was not very transparent as to how the calculation was made. Ms McCabe articulated it really clearly. Can the witnesses share with the committee what engagement they have had with the Low Pay Commission on the actual formula that is being used? Has there been any engagement or traction, or are the witnesses getting an "it is not our area" and "hands off" response?
