Flexible Work Practices
Dail Éireann — 2025-09-23
============================================================

Thomas Byrne (FF), Meath East

The Minister has mentioned the upcoming Working in Ireland survey, which the Department has funded. About 5,000 people, north and south of the Border, have been surveyed. The Minister understands the survey has been completed and we can expect the research output in the coming months. We anticipate that there will be a lot of information on a range of labour market issues in this area, and this will be a useful input into the debate on where policy needs to focus. Certainly, the Minister will come back to the Deputy on that, taking into account the matters she has raised in the context of the forthcoming budget.
