The Report on Jobseekers Benefit Duration and Subsidiary Employment examines the jobseekers benefit scheme duration and seasonal and part-time workers who have subsidiary employment. It also examines the daily earnings limit that currently applies to employment classed as subsidiary.

I am currently considering the findings of the report and intend to submit it to the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection shortly for their consideration.

I trust this clarifies the matter at this time.
