I thank the Minister for clarifying that. The point I want to stress is that there should be no vacuum that might leave workers vulnerable. I made the point regarding the advertisement in Poland seeking 900 workers for a big contract in Intel and offering only €10 per hour. While we have electricians sitting at home in Ireland who cannot get jobs, that will cause a lot of concern among unemployed workers. The Attorney General is to advise the Minister, but does he think legislation will need to be introduced, and how quickly does he think it can be brought to the Dáil? It is very important that we do that.
