Alice-Mary Higgins (Independent)

Public duty, equality and human rights, as I mentioned to the Minister, extends to procurement. We have obligations in the context of equality and human rights. Has there been a review in light of this? We know that some of the very largest companies, a number of whom may have public or Irish Government contracts, have recently been disavowing their commitment to equality. Certain companies have been very publicly rowing back and saying they will remove diversity, equality and inclusion and are actively unravelling any equality measures within their practices. Has there been a review of Ireland's exposure to companies like that? Their stance would be out of spirit with concerns for public duty, equality and human rights in the context of procurement and Irish public contracts.
