Redundancy Payments Bill, 2003: Committee and Remaining Stages.
12:30 pm
Michael Ahern (Cork East, Fianna Fail)
The reason for this amendment is that the current wording in the Bill could be interpreted to mean that the person must be currently practising as a barrister or solicitor, and this would be more onerous than the requirements for the chairman of the tribunal. The amendment exactly mirrors the wording which applies to the chairman, with the exception that the experience required is five rather than seven years.
