I acknowledge that Deputy Sherlock only has the best of intentions with amendment No. 22, but I am afraid that, as on Committee Stage, I am unable to accept it. While this amendment might seem like a straightforward proposal and I accept the Deputy's bona fides in tabling it, a range of complexities mean it will require time to determine the appropriate standards that should apply in respect of employments that will be exempt from the requirement to make AE contributions. As the Deputy will be aware, the Bill sets …

I have outlined to the Deputy the reasons I cannot accept it. I have worked with the Deputy many times. Having good ideas and trying to accommodate them has nothing to do with the colour of the party, and I believe that is accepted by the Deputy. If there is a good idea that will benefit people and I can take it on board, then I will certainly give it consideration, but in this case, leaving the Bill as is means the standards will be worked out and set by the end of year 6 at the latest. I give the Deputy the commi…

This amendment comes about in response to an amendment tabled by Deputy Ó Cathasaigh on Committee Stage. I stated at the time that I was amenable to considering the matter and bringing it to the OPC to see how it could be provided for. As I recall, t…

I move amendment No. 29: In page 54, line 33, to delete "may" and substitute "shall". This is another amendment that arises as a result of an amendment that Deputy Ó Cathasaigh put forward on Committee Stage. I said I would see how we could cater for it on Report Stage. Members should note that the amendment has not been grouped with the previous amendment because that one relates to regulations on the scale and methodology to be used to describe the risk levels of schemes while this amendment instead relates direc…
