Go raibh maith agat. People should stop whingeing about something that has already been agreed.

Some people are making the case that the Bill is an additional burden on employers, but I do not believe that for one moment. Why would employers not have proper documentation for workers? Since there is no excuse for not having any, it is not an extra burden. There is no reason for employers being unable to display the notices required under the Bill. I hope that we can move to a situation in which employers would accept their responsibilities and get on with them, thus providing a level playing field for everyone in the sector.
