Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss the following matter of urgent national importance, namely, in light of the fact that some employers are using the growing phenomenon of obtaining staff through employment agencies to undermine and dismantle agreements on standards, pay and conditions, the necessity for the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment to take on board the recommendations being put forward by SIPTU in its campaign on this issue launched yesterday, and introduce legislation to protect the rights of agency workers to a standard equivalent to directly employed workers.
