Equality Bill 2004: Committee Stage.
11:00 am
Pat Moylan (Fianna Fail)
The acceptance of the amendments would mean that on reaching the age of retirement, the decision would be for the individual to make on whether he or she is willing and able to continue in employment. It would be very difficult for employers if the decision was enshrined in legislation as one for the person in employment to deem himself or herself willing and able to continue. Can the Minister of State explain the position?
