Seanad debates

Thursday, 9 October 2003

Senator Hayes mentioned Jim Ross, the man who brought his age discrimination case to the Equality Tribunal. I fully applaud that and remember thinking "Well done" when I read about him getting his compensation, which was miserable enough. The point was made, however, which was important and that opens the way for other actions in that area. Nothing is surer in life than that we will get old – if we live that long – and Mr. Ross's action was wonderful. I thank Senator Hayes for raising the issue.
