I thank the Minister. I should have said I recognise that he mentioned the JLC process, with which I am familiar from previous work with SIPTU. I hope it will be beneficial but I believe the Government can actually make the intervention regarding wage scales without having a JLC process. I welcome it as a step in what is definitely the right direction, however.
My second question is on emergency funding for the sector. Will it be continued? Will there be increased investment in the sector once we are out of this pandemic?
