Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 November 2020
37. Deputy Rose Conway-Walsh asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment when the employment regulation order on the remuneration of security officers will be signed into law; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37230/20]
View answerI understand that the Labour Court on 14 October 2020 received proposals from the Security Industry Joint Labour Committee (JLC) for the adoption of proposals to amend S.I. 231 of 2017 Employment Regulation Order (Security Industry Joint Labour Committee) 2017.
Having examined the proposals and the report of the Chairman of the JLC submitted in accordance with the terms of the statute, the Court, in accordance with the Industrial Relations Act, 1946 at Section 42B(12)(d) declined to adopt the proposals of the JLC. The Court has informed the Chairman of the JLC accordingly.
In those circumstances, the Court currently has no proposals before it from the JLC and consequently will not be forwarding proposals to the Minister at this time. Any further submission of proposals by the JLC will require the Court to consider the adoption of such proposals in accordance with Section 42B of the Industrial Relations Act, 1946 Act.
