- Automatic Enrolment Retirement Savings Systems Bill 2024: Report and Final Stages (22 May 2024)
Seán Sherlock: I accept that the Minister is not minded to agree the Labour Party amendment. I am going over old ground from Committee Stage here, but in economic terms, our worry is what is called the opportunity cost. In essence, the time it will take to set this up means that workers will miss out on the scheme's benefits for a number of years. The example I cited on Committee Stage was of a worker on...

Heather Humphreys: I have outlined to the Deputy the reasons I cannot accept it. I have worked with the Deputy many times. Having good ideas and trying to accommodate them has nothing to do with the colour of the party, and I believe that is accepted by the Deputy. If there is a good idea that will benefit people and I can take it on board, then I will certainly give it consideration, but in this case,...

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: The first thing to say is that the Minister is as good as her word. She promised to take four of my amendments back to the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel. They have returned to the House this evening as three amendments but all four are captured. I thank the Minister for that. It is unusual and rewarding as a Government backbencher when a Minister engages constructively with the...

Seán Sherlock: I looked at the amendment. Forgive me if I am being a little pedantic. It is just to seek clarity. It states, "aggregate statistical data relating to participation in the automatic enrolment retirement savings system". That is fine and self-evident. It also states, "statistical data relating to the types of investments held by AE provider schemes". To me, that reads like you can have...

Heather Humphreys: The website will clearly state where the investments are made. We do not want to lose the point here. This is not State funding or State money. This is the money of the members and they have a right to know where it is going. For that reason, we are going to make sure that NAERSA produces data on the types of investment held by the investment management providers. It will ensure that...

Heather Humphreys: I move amendment No. 12: In page 35, line 37, to delete “the website” and substitute “a website maintained by or on behalf”. This group of amendments has been identified by the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel and are once again primarily of a technical nature.
