Sexual Harassment in the Arts and Culture Sector: Discussion

2:30 pm

Mr. Feargal Ó Coigligh:

In terms of the conditions that we lay down, there is no particular need for new legislation. Having listened to all the speakers here, there has been an emphasis placed on the culture of the sector. There is a huge amount of legislation and the Irish Equity group has mentioned some issues. The sector must address the culture, which is a much more powerful statement than necessarily seeking legislation.
