The bad employer pockets the €10 and it is gone. The people we are talking about are those to whom Senator Nash referred - students and individuals at the bottom end of the salary scale. Bad employers are making profits they should not make. Good employers always hand over the money. As a former trade union leader, I must be here to support this Bill in every way. I appreciate the Minister of State's positive approach to it. As a result of that approach, we are going to see this Bill become law.
I know the Leas-Chathaoirleach is anxious for brevity. However, I will have plenty to say on one of the amendments.
