Redundancy Payments Bill 2003: Second Stage.
12:30 pm
Terry Leyden (Fianna Fail)
I welcome the Tánaiste. In fairness to her, she had the good intention of endeavouring to achieve retrospection, if possible. Where do we draw the line as far as legislation is concerned? The Tánaiste expressed her concerns about the issues which apply to most constituencies where industries close. Can anybody say what date should be applied in terms of retrospection or that we should go back two or three years or six months?
