Níl aon oibritheoirí fir fostaithe go díreach ag mo Roinn lena n-íoctar pá idir £4 10s. 0d. agus £7 in aghaidh na seachtaine. I gcás oibritheoirí atá fostaithe ag Comhlachtaí Poiblí nó leath-Phoiblí — Gaeltarra Éireann agus Arramara Teoranta—atá faoi choimirce mo Roinne, ba cheart an t-eolas atá ag teastáil ina dtaobh a lorg go díreach ón dá Chomhlacht sin.
With your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, in view of the unsatisfactory nature of the Minister's reply and his supplementary statements on Question No. 30, I propose to raise the matter on the adjournment.
