‹ Order of Business Broadcasting Bill and public-sector pay disclosure
Summary
Patrick O’Donovan asks when the Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill will be published and calls for pay details in semi-State bodies to be disclosed; the Taoiseach says publication is due next year.
In the light of the revelations made in the recent weeks about pay in certain organisations, under promised legislation, the broadcasting (amendment) Bill, No. 70 in the Government's legislative programme, is due before the House. When is that Bill expected to be published? Does the Taoiseach agree that now is the opportune time for all semi-State bodies to publish exact details of what they pay their individual employees and contractors?
