Greyhound Recycling dispute

Summary

Deputy Tóibín raises a 35% pay cut and lockout at Greyhound Recycling, seeks prompt workplace-relations legislation, and asks for a review of domestic waste services; the Taoiseach promises publication of the Bill and further information.

Mar is eol don Taoiseach, tá úinéirí Greyhoud Recycling tar éis laghdú uafásach - 35% - a dhéanamh ar thuarastal na n-oibrithe. Tá siad tar éis iad a ghlasáil amach as an bhfoirgneamh freisin. Tá na hoibrithe tar éis cabhair iontach a thabhairt do na húinéirí go dtí seo. Ghlac siad le níos mó uaireanta an chloig a oibriú gan aon chostas-----

What legislation are we talking about?

Comment on this

The workplace relations legislation. Deireann an comhlacht go bhfuil an LRC tar éis 35% a chinniúint, ach níl sé sin fíor. Given that this is so important and that the Taoiseach signed off on the legislation yesterday, which I welcome, can he commit to the House that it will be published before the end of this term? We have been waiting for it for three years. A large number of industrial relations problems are arising under current conditions.

Will the Taoiseach commit to a review of domestic waste collection and waste management services? They are imploding at present because of a race to the bottom with regard to wages.

Beidh an chéad Bhille a luaigh an Teachta foilsithe roimh deireadh na seachtaine seo. Beidh cead ag chuile duine a gcuid tuairimí faoi a phlé ag an am sin.

There is some work going on in respect of domestic waste. I cannot give the Deputy the detail on it now but I will advise him on it.
