‹ Order of Business European youth guarantee legislation
Summary
Deputy Calleary asks whether legislation will underpin the European youth guarantee; the Tánaiste says existing legislation is sufficient, though legislation will be prepared if later required.
Does the Government plan to introduce an amendment to the Social Welfare and Pensions Bill to give legislative underpinning to the European youth guarantee?
The point Deputy Mattie McGrath raised about the EirGrid Bill is important and should be considered not in terms of the individual but of the conflict of two roles.
Comment on this
No legislation is required to deal with the European youth guarantee and it can be dealt with under existing legislation. If legislation arises, it will be prepared and put before the House.
