301. To ask the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if she intends to progress the Industrial Relations (Provisions in respect of Pension Entitlements of Retired Workers) Bill 2021; if not, if she proposes to take similar legislative steps; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The Industrial Relations (Provisions in Respect of Pension Entitlements of Retired Workers) Bill 2021 is a Private Members’ Bill and it is a matter for the sponsoring deputies to progress the Bill.

The Bill is primarily focused on amending industrial relations-related legislation. As such, the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment, which has overall policy responsibility for such matters, is the lead Department for addressing these issues.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
