I refer to an issue which the Minister and I might discuss later. The Irish Congress of Trade Unions has raised concerns about the attachment order in that it could possibly facilitate the dismissal of an employee or could lead to discrimination in the future. It suggests that we should consider amending the Bill to protect the rights of persons served with an attachment order. I ask the Minister to comment.
