I propose to take Questions Nos. 54, 55, 83 and 84 together.
My Department has not had discussions with its suppliers/service contractors or suppliers/service contractors to the National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO) about a living wage.
Levels of remuneration for employees of my Department and NESDO are based on pay scales set centrally by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.
