Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

I have no information on the status of that issue in the Labour Court at the moment. I would need to check it out for the Deputy and come back to him. As he says, there is speculation. I am not aware that there is a basis for that speculation. I do not know where it came from. We introduced the minimum wage and there is a process by which it is reviewed and referred to the Labour Court. That is an issue that is with the Labour Court at present.
