Robert Dowds (Dublin Mid West, Labour)

What I want to be sure of at the end of this process is that if legislation is required, it will be enacted. This has been an ongoing problem for a number of years. The big case that arose was the GAMA case in 2005, which involved many workers. It particularly disturbs me that, despite this, such organisations can continue to get contracts in Ireland. It is wrong that those who are employing people in such situations are allowed to function. I urge movement on this issue.
