Joint Oireachtas Committee on Gender Equality

Recommendations of the Report of the Citizens’ Assembly on Gender Equality: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. John Dunne:

I am not trying to be pessimistic, I am an optimist by nature, but the system in the Netherlands has undergone a fairly radical change in recent years. I do not know if the Senator has been looking at the new system or the old system, but the noise I am getting back in the background is that the new system is highly problematic.
