PQ 69
69. Deputy Réada Cronin asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if he will liaise with the Minister for Justice and ensure free legal representation for workers in labour disputes with their employers at the WRC and Labour Court given that such services are currently unavailable in both fora and resulting in inherently-disadvantaged lay-litigant status of workers due to their lack of ability to pay professional legal fees; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
