Regulatory and Legislative Changes Required for the Transposition of the Adequate Minimum Wages Directive: Discussion
Ms Maeve McElwee:
This is getting to the point on public procurement. I am somewhat surprised that my colleagues in congress would say they expect to see it in legislation. I would expect that through social partnership we might get around the table and negotiate collectively on how we would see some of this framework coming together rather than having a legislative base in which employers would ask what is for them to negotiate.
