Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Estimates for Public Services 2021
Vote 32 - Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Further Revised) (30 Jun 2021)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank the Tánaiste for being with us. I hope I can be heard over the bells that are ringing. They will only give me a headache and it is good to know I can be heard over them. I have a few questions. My time is tight and I apologise in advance as I will have to leave to speak in the Chamber shortly. With regard to the Enterprise Ireland funding, there was unspent capital in...

Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Estimates for Public Services 2021
Vote 32 - Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Further Revised) (30 Jun 2021)

Louise O'Reilly: I do not think there would be any shortage of projects if people understand there is cash available to support them. I would hope to see that happen. When I looked at those figures I was genuinely surprised that the funding is quite disproportionate. It involves very small amounts of money and very small numbers of companies in areas that it could be argued need a little bit of help, and...

Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Estimates for Public Services 2021
Vote 32 - Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Further Revised) (30 Jun 2021)

Louise O'Reilly: I agree those sectors that are not unionised are the most vulnerable and the best defence against that is to join a trade union and be active in it. I encourage workers to do that. It would be helpful if a deadline was set. It is a complicated area. The chances are that the report will present a range of options, a little like the Duffy Cahill report did. A conversation will then stem...

Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Estimates for Public Services 2021
Vote 32 - Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Further Revised) (30 Jun 2021)

Louise O'Reilly: I ask the Tánaiste to aim for 90 and see if he can surpass that target. We know the work inspectors do is valuable so recruiting more of them would be beneficial. The Tánaiste has said 60 is the target for the moment but that is a drop in the ocean. More and more people are going to be reliant on the WRC to vindicate their rights under the law. The Tánaiste said that one...

Select Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Estimates for Public Services 2021
Vote 32 - Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Further Revised) (30 Jun 2021)

Louise O'Reilly: My question relates to the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement and its funding. I am not asking the Tánaiste to comment on an individual case but merely to assure me that the office has the financial and human resources to deal fully with its investigations into the former chief executive of the Football Association of Ireland. I understand it will be a protracted...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (29 Jun 2021)

Louise O'Reilly: Stobart Air has let 480 workers go. It is absolutely devastating news for them and their families; the worst possible news for them at the worst possible time. The Minister does not have a plan for our aviation sector and we are starting to see the impact of it now. I have asked the Minister specifically about the former Stobart Air workers before but I do so again. Will he please liaise...

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (24 Jun 2021)

Louise O'Reilly: The Supreme Court has overturned the High Court decision to strike down the sectoral employment order, SEO, for the building sector. I very much welcome that. I am glad that the State took that challenge. I am aware, however, of local authorities using contractors who are paying significantly below the rate set out in the SEO. I have seen payslips from workers who are being paid...
