‹ Order of Business Construction Contracts Bill delays
Summary
Deputy Michael Healy-Rae highlights subcontractors’ difficulty securing payment and criticises the prolonged progress of the Construction Contracts Bill. The Tánaiste confirms that it remains on Committee Stage.
Many subcontractors are finding it extremely difficult to get paid by main contractors. Deputy Durkan raised the matter of the Construction Contracts Bill, which is one of the slowest Bills ever to make its way through the Houses of the Oireachtas. It has left people in the lurch for a long time and is very important.
