Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2011: Report and Final Stages
12:00 pm
Joe Higgins (Dublin West, Socialist Party)
I accept that but it is proper to draw attention to the fact that many Members on the backbenches have now received feedback from their constituents and would have voted in a different way. The Minister should have separated the restoration of the national minimum wage and other issues she mentioned, which could have been expedited quickly, so we could have a separate mechanism for dealing with the pension situation.
