The Labour Court receives proposals from Joint Labour Committees, on foot of which it makes Employment Regulation Orders (EROs). EROs are statutory instruments which set out terms and conditions applying to specified workers in a particular sector.
The registration of Employment Agreements and the maintenance of the Register of such agreements is also a matter for the Labour Court. I have no direct function in relation to the making of EROs or the registration of Employment Agreements. I will, however pass the Deputy's question to the Labour Court and request them to provide the relevant information to the Deputy.
