Brian Stanley: The security of employment of people is a really big issue because of the ability to be able to hire and fire on a whim. People are not in constant jobs and the fact is that they cannot get a mortgage. It leads to all sorts of problems. There is the missing piece of the PRSI, but there is the workers' rights issue that Mr. McKeon mentioned around the entitlements.

Brian Stanley: There are unintended consequences. I will ask about the unemployment benefits, although it is a policy decision so I do not want Mr. McKeon to go there, and the proposal to increase the benefits in that there would be a graduated level of payments. What kind of timeline is on the implementation of that? I understand there will be legislation and all of that, which Mr. McKeon does not have...

Brian Stanley: I will ask briefly about the impact of it. I know there is the level of payment and then there is the duration and, obviously, they are different things. However, in terms of the cost of the higher payment, what are the cost implications here for the Exchequer?

Brian Stanley: If very well-off workers will have 60% of their previous income, if a person is on €100,000 then he or she is going to get €60,000. That person is doing much better than someone who is on the minimum wage. What are the cost implications here?
