Action Plan for Jobs debate
Senator Mullins asks for a debate with the Jobs Minister on accelerating economic recovery and implementing the Action Plan for Jobs.
My question for the Leader is to outline when we will get back to discussing what the people really want us to discuss, namely, how can we accelerate the level of recovery in the economy and how we can create more jobs. I ask the Leader if we could have a further discussion in the coming weeks, if possible before Easter, with the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Deputy Richard Bruton, on An Action Plan for Jobs 2014. That is what people want us to discuss here and now. I was listening to a popular radio programme for a few minutes this afternoon and people are sick to the teeth of this. They want politicians to get back to dealing with the issues of the day and to solving the problems facing the ordinary person who is at work or out of work at this time. They certainly do not want any more time wasting on this issue.
