Payment of Wages (Amendment) (Tips and Gratuities) Bill 2022: Committee and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2022-06-29
============================================================

Damien English (FG), Meath West

The group of amendments relate to the insertion of a new section in the Bill. Amendment No. 1 means that the Minister will be defined for the purpose of the Bill as the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment. It is required because of the new provisions we are inserting requiring a review of the Bill once it is enacted and in force for more than a year. The new section 9 provides a review clause for the Bill. It will be reviewed after one year in operation when employers, employees and customers will have an experience of how the legislation works in practice. The review must be completed within six months and laid before the Oireachtas. It will help us determine what changes, if any, may be required. That was an ask at an early stage, that it would have a built-in review. That is there now.
