Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement (23 Nov 2017)

Maurice Quinlivan: I am disappointed with the response I received this morning to the six parliamentary questions I asked over a month ago on 25 October. Those questions have not been answered.

Banded Hours Contract Bill 2016 Report: Motion (16 Nov 2017)

Maurice Quinlivan: I acknowledge the vast amount of work Deputy Cullinane has put into this Bill. There is a very simple agenda behind this legislation, which is to give workers more security regarding the number of hours they work and the amount they are paid as a result. To give workers this small level of assurance and security is not a big ask. In fact, it begs the question as to why the current...

Maurice Quinlivan: I thank my colleague, Deputy Ó Broin, for bringing forward the motion. I am delighted the Government is not opposing it. It is very important that the Dáil is taking note of the disgraceful behaviour of some landlords.

Maurice Quinlivan: 55.

[43033/17]

Other Questions: Unemployment Levels (7 Nov 2017)

Page 13 of the statement refers to unemployment rates being expected to fall to 5.5% by 2019 - something I welcome - and remaining at this level over the remainder of the forecast horizon, which is until at least 2021. Using the unemployment figures provided, that would equate to circa...

Other Questions: Unemployment Levels (7 Nov 2017)

Maurice Quinlivan: I thank the Minister for her response. Previously, I raised the same issue with the Minister for Finance, Deputy Paschal Donohoe, at the Committee on Budgetary Oversight.

I appreciate there is a certain point which traditionally constitutes full employment. I...
