People Before Profit, who proposed the motion, say low paid workers are struggling to survive due to the increasing cost of living.
The vast majority of Ennis Chamber’s members are micro businesses who employ ten people or less and CEO Margaret O’Brien says they’re seriously struggling as things are.
