36.

asked the Minister for Social Welfare the date on which any regulation was made under the Social Welfare (Pay-Related Benefit) Act, 1973 extending pay-related benefits to agricultural workers; and the date of operation of the pay-related benefit.

Regulations to bring agricultural workers within the scope of the pay-related benefit scheme have not yet been made. The regulations which must be approved in draft form by resolution in both Houses of the Oireachtas before being made, are being prepared and the draft will be ready shortly. It is proposed to commence payment of pay-related benefit from the beginning of April, 1974.
