Statutory sick pay bill

Summary

Deputy Ellis asked for the status and timetable of the promised statutory sick pay Bill. The Taoiseach said work was progressing under the Tánaiste and that the Government remained committed to it.

The Government has committed to introducing a statutory sick pay Bill. Consultations have been ongoing with stakeholders. Will the Taoiseach outline the current status of this Bill? Will he provide a timeline as to when it will be brought before the Dáil?

Comment on this

I think I spoke on that yesterday in the Dáil. Work is progressing on it. It is under the auspices of the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment and his Department. The Government is committed to it.
