I move amendment No. 1:

In page 3, line 8, after “wage;” to insert the following:

“to make provision for the purposes of the operation of the Workplace Relations Act 2015 and, for that purpose, to amend that enactment and certain other enactments;”.

This amendment is required to amend the Long Title of the Bill to reflect the amendments to the Workplace Relations Act 2015 and certain other enactments. This amendment is taken together with amendment No. 31, which is a technical drafting amendment. The proposed new section 11 provides that the Act of 2015 shall mean the Workplace Relations Act 2015 and the Minister shall mean the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation for the purposes of the proposed new Part 3 of the National Minimum Wage (Low Pay Commission) Bill 2015.
