Jim Mitchell
Ceist:2 Mr. J. Mitchell asked the Minister for Labour if he has any proposals to further restrict the payment of wages by cash; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Payment of Wages by Cash.
A Payment of Wages Bill is at the final stages of drafting and I expect to be in a position to bring the legislation before the Oireachtas shortly, possibly even before Christmas or if not, early in the next session.
Deputy Mitchell wishes to convey his apologies for his absence from the House. I wish to check with the Ceann Comhairle if it is only the named person who may ask a supplementary on these questions?
Absolutely. I am sorry to disappoint the Deputy.
