EU Directives
Dail Éireann — 2022-12-13
============================================================

Dara Calleary (FF), Mayo

Again, we do not support the overall adoption and we raised concerns about the financial sector. There was an issue during the early stages of the negotiation that there were different treatments in this directive from other directives. We wanted to support consistency in various directives around that. We also had concern about the inclusion within the scope of national social security schemes and institutions for occupational retirement provisions. Those concerns were superseded by our overall concerns about the ability of member states to exclude financial institutions, as highlighted by the remarks from Oxfam.
