Apologies have been received from Deputies Bailey, Brady and Joan Collins and Senator Nash. I welcome everyone to this meeting of the Joint Committee on Employment Affairs and Social Protection. I remind members to turn their off mobile phones. I propose we go into private session to deal with some housekeeping matters. Is that agreed? Agreed.
Business of Joint Committee
