Ms Caoimhe de Barra:

We think that is very limited because what we see in our work is that the large volume of violations is by no means limited to those high-risk sectors. Those are the sectors that may have received most media attention but other high-risk sectors include arms manufacture, private security, fisheries, petroleum products, plastic products, gas, electric power generation, construction, finance, insurance and tourism. There is work that could be done to strengthen those high-risk sectors. The pivotal point, however, is that the directive should apply to all companies and supply chains and be proportionate.
