Mr. Ryan
I have had under consideration for some time now the position in relation to the Holidays (Employees) Act, 1961, of full-time insurance agents paid by way of commission, and consultations have been held with representatives of employers and employees concerned.
This examination has reached an advanced stage and I will make known my decision on the matter at the earliest possible date.
