I move amendment No. 4:

To delete the words “the current eligibility criteria for pension entitlement to be examined;” and substitute the following:— the current eligibility criteria for pension entitlement to be examined with a focus on differentiated impacts on men, women and carers in the home;

— the publication of the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection’s review of Government pension policy with a focus on differentiated impacts on men and women;

— the Government to indicate a timeline for the retrospective application of the Homemaker’s Scheme to 1973;

— a commitment from Government that any introduction of a total contributions approach from 2020 will be for all pensions;”
