My question is for the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection, Deputy Regina Doherty. The House approved an all-party motion on community employment, CE, scheme supervisors, there has been a Labour Court recommendation and the Minister has been involved in a process within her Department to try to reach an agreement on providing a pension for people who are doing an incredibly important job. Will she update the House on where that process stands? Does she expect any progress before the end of the year?

That was very appropriate and brief.

I thank the Deputy. As he is aware, I met a number of union representatives and CE supervisors probably before, or maybe arising from, the all-party motion. We engaged in a process over the past couple of months to try to put some proposals to my Department and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform to resolve the issue, but not exclusively in respect of pensions. I was very clear to the union and representatives as to where the direction of our negotiations could go. Those proposals are on the table at the moment pending discussions. As I told the Deputy privately beforehand, I am in the supervisors' corner and will be rooting for them as hard as I can. We want to find a resolution for this issue collectively. We will keep working until we do.
