Employees (Provision of Information and Consultation) Bill 2005: Committee Stage.
12:00 pm
Joe O'Toole (Independent)
I welcome the amendment. I compliment Senator White on picking up on the point. With regard to the term "undertaking" being used in the directive, it is not unusual for terms to be taken from directives and transposed into legislation. I do not have any difficulty with this. However, it is important, as Senator Quinn stated, that the Bill should relate to public and private undertakings. The House owes a debt of gratitude to Senator White for picking up on this important issue.
