Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)

Yes, I ask that the Minister come before the House to indicate whether he agrees with the Pensions Board. It is wrong that employees use their pension fund for this purpose. Emergency legislation is required to protect the pension funds of all employees. If the recent action of Aer Lingus pilots was a blatant abuse of their pension fund, it is surprising the Minister has not responded to the comments made by the Pensions Board. An urgent response is required.
