Any legislation that is introduced should be for the public benefit but specific groups may also be beneficiaries. In this case, do the witnesses believe that employees within organisations will be the real beneficiaries? If people are outside, they will not have the full picture. Will the advantage of this legislation accrue to a woman working in an organisation? If she can see pay gaps in the organisation, will it be of assistance to her?
