Joint Oireachtas Committee on Enterprise, Tourism and Employment

Competitiveness and the Cost of Doing Business in Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Ms Mary Rose Burke:

Specifically with the timing of issues all coming together, be it auto-enrolment and different supports, what we would like to see rather than debating any particular issue is that, when new regulations are brought out, there is a test on the impact that they will have on the smaller and scaling businesses so that a system is in place for assessing the impact of each of those rather than debating the merits of each of the individual measures.
