Bord na Móna pensioners receive both the superannuation scheme and the State pension, and while the superannuation scheme might be only €100 or €150 per week, they are still a lot better off than these workers. We will seek the views of the Minister and put those points to him. Because it is these people's sole income, it is a very difficult situation and something has to give.
No. 2291B, from Ms Helena Hughes, programme manager at the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, SEAI, dated 15 December, provides information we requested at our meeting of 30 November. I propose we note and publish the item. Is that agreed? Agreed. Deputy Murphy flagged it for discussion.
