Ms ?ine Maher:

I thank the Deputy for her question. We are establishing the ELRG here in statute and it is intended that there will be a piece around a decision required by the Minister in terms of the operational establishment later on. I can say that it is intended to seek nominations from representative organisations. The intention is that the membership of the ELRG will comprise people professional, technical, and legal expertise and skills to contribute to the development of employment, redundancy and insolvency law. It is intended that there will be worker and employer representation, along with representation from academia, the Law Society and practitioners from entities such as the Labour Court.
