Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2008: Second Stage (Resumed)
1:00 pm
Michael Ring (Mayo, Fine Gael)
We need clear legislation on it. The Minister has an obligation to ensure that the means of people on social welfare are protected. There is little point in the Minister giving them an increase if the private sector takes it off them. It is a problem. The same applies to the local authorities.
