Low Pay Commission Recommendations on the National Minimum Wage: Discussion
Mr. Ois?n Gilmore:
The monthly minimum wage in Euro terms in 2023 was the fifth highest in the EU of the 22 member states with statutory minimum wages. Converting it to purchasing power standard, so it takes into account different costs of living and different price levels in different countries, it is slightly lower, at around the seventh highest of the 22 member states with a statutory minimum wage.
