Mr. Fiachra ? Luain:

I do not want to take up too much speaking time, so we might ask some other people this question, but I do know that the rule about 20 hours was brought in in 2010 when a person could rent a room for €200 a month in Dublin. That is no longer the case. By moving the limit from 20 to 30 legal working hours, as has been done in Spain, we would be protecting these students from exploitation outside of the law. I would like to ask the others, who may like to speak, why it is important to increase the number of hours from 20 to 30?
