Louise O'Reilly: It just trips off the tongue, that one.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Regulatory and Legislative Changes Required for the Transposition of the Adequate Minimum Wages Directive: Discussion (24 Jan 2024)
Louise O'Reilly: I am obviously aware of the legislation in place. I am familiar with much of it. The ICTU has put a fairly clear position on the legislative changes that it believes are required to protect workers. I do not necessarily hear any hostility from Ms McElwee in that regard, but it is obviously something that would require further discussion. My time is tight, so I will be quick with this one....

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Regulatory and Legislative Changes Required for the Transposition of the Adequate Minimum Wages Directive: Discussion (24 Jan 2024)
Louise O'Reilly: I suppose we should all spare a thought for those poor employers who are only dying for their workers to join trade unions but the workers will not. That is in no way, shape or form my experience, and I have fairly extensive experience in the industrial relations arena, as does my father. I did not ring him or otherwise contact him, but I can say that was not his experience either. I am...

Louise O'Reilly: In the model outlined by Mr. Reidy, there would be broader coverage for larger companies, direct bargaining for some and sectoral bargaining for others. Notwithstanding the issues with the JLC and other mechanisms, does Ms McElwee see that model as forming part of the work of transposing the directive to ensure it functions or will IBEC be advancing a different model?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Regulatory and Legislative Changes Required for the Transposition of the Adequate Minimum Wages Directive: Discussion (24 Jan 2024)
Louise O'Reilly: I will briefly touch on the issue of public procurement and procurement being used as a mechanism to drive or support workers' rights. All present have heard of cases relating to this issue. In light of the Cathaoirleach's warning, I will not name the cases specifically. One such case involved a cleaning company that provided services in a Department. Another involved a very large food...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Regulatory and Legislative Changes Required for the Transposition of the Adequate Minimum Wages Directive: Discussion (24 Jan 2024)
Louise O'Reilly: Sorry, just on this, the main reason was that the company did not have to. This was made clear to the people on the trade union side. There was absolutely no requirement on the company to engage at the WRC, despite the fact there was quite decent density among the workers and it was clearly the will of the workers to engage at the WRC. Notwithstanding the individual circumstances, there...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Regulatory and Legislative Changes Required for the Transposition of the Adequate Minimum Wages Directive: Discussion (24 Jan 2024)
Louise O'Reilly: I am specifically referring to the role of the Government in the directive with regard to promoting collective bargaining. Obviously, words are great and sitting around the table and having a chat is absolutely brilliant, but the power of the State's spending could be a very important actor in furthering the promotion of the collective bargaining aim of the directive. In terms of this, and...

- Housing and Homeless Prevention: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Jan 2024)
Louise O'Reilly: The Minister said that he believes real progress is being made. I genuinely do not know how he said that with a straight face. Behind all of his policy failings - sky-high rents, unaffordable homes, rampant vulture funds and 13,500 homeless people, 4,000 of whom are children - are real people. Families are having their lives destroyed. Sometimes I think that if the Minister knew how bad...
