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.

I have found some comfort in her words in respect of the required skill set. There is a tried and tested formula in legislative matters like this where it absolutely affects workers and their livelihoods. There is plenty of precedent, as...

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: I do not understand the Department's objection to this because it seems to be a departure from prior policy.
