Committee on Children and Equality

General Scheme of the Equality (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Martin Collins:

I certainly would expect and hope so. I would imagine it will be rare or exceptional that in a discrimination case the maximum would be awarded, but the fact that it is there and enshrined in legislation will act, I hope, as a deterrent and will promote, as I said in my opening statement, a culture of compliance.
