Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

Dr. Rachel Widdis:

I would add that, of course, there is a prohibition on forced labour. The annex contains more than 11 human rights instruments, including all the ILO conventions, etc, and the German Act coming into force, which contains a prohibition on forced labour. It is all part of the same thing, but there are distinct strands, including child labour, forced labour, all forms of slavery and those on waste and environment, which we should talk about. I will refer to Ms Lawlor.
