Redundancy Payments Bill 2003: Second Stage.
Section 7 provides for the amendment of section 9(1)(b) of the principal Act to include fixed purpose contracts. When the fixed purpose contract ceases there is redundancy. Section 8 provides for the amendment of section 17 of the principal Act. The position, at present, is that the three forms RP1, RP2 and RP3 are the main forms used for statutory redundancy. They contain much repetition and will be amalgamated into one form when the new IT system is available later next year. This one form will be the basis for any rebate or lump sum claim.
