Protection of Employees (Fixed-Term Work) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.

 

2:30 pm

Derek McDowell (Labour)

I wish to reiterate that the test set out in section 6, which the Minister of State read out earlier, sets out what will be the comparators. It largely reflects the 2001 Act. I accept that there is a belt and braces element to this matter. I am not sure that this measure is absolutely necessary, but no ill can be served by accepting the amendment put forward by Senator O'Toole, which provides absolute clarity in respect of the issue.
