Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Bill 2004: Report and Final Stages.
5:00 pm
Tony Killeen (Clare, Fianna Fail)
In reviewing the Bill, it has come to light that there is a possible inconsistency between the use of the word "undertaking" in section 2(5), which uses the phrase "whether carried on by him or her for profit or not", and the definition of "undertaking" in section 2(1). For this reason it is important that amendments Nos. 5 and 6 be accepted. I am concerned that the Bill will cover all types of workplaces and the amendments will ensure this.
