I move amendment No. 12:

In page 9, lines 6 to 9, to delete all words from and including "any" in line 6 down to and including "employment" in line 9 and substitute "any adverse treatment of an employee by his or her employer".

The amendment seeks the substitution of the words from "any act or omission" to "his or her employment" with "any adverse treatment of an employee by his or her employer". The Bill is not strong enough in this regard and I propose a definition that is in previous legislation, which will strengthen it. The definition has been recommended by a number of organisations.
