I welcome the Minister and congratulate him on his elevation. The Low Pay Commission recently recommended the abolition of all sub-minimum rates of pay for young workers. It is an issue close to my heart. I have a Bill ready to go in this regard. What is the stance of the Department? When will the Minister act on this unanimous recommendation?
