Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

It is most unfortunate that the amendments from the Seanad did not address the cornerstone of the Bill, the fundamental weakness, which was the fact that a permit is given to an employer rather than an employee. That would have released the stranglehold that employers have around the necks of employees, which we still see in the employers who abuse their position in that regard. Will the Minister consider revisiting that issue? Can an amendment be moved this afternoon to rectify that fault?
