Might the Taoiseach consider introducing legislation to deal with some of the exorbitant wages paid in the State sector? The previous Minister for Finance proposed a cap of €250,000 for new State jobs. The Government seems to be able to reduce the wages of the less well-off; surely it can deal with the wages of those receiving more than €250,000 in the State sector.
