That is my understanding. If it is not the case, I will discuss the matter further with the Senator on Report Stage.

The other part of the argument concerns whether the definition needs to be included in the legislation as well as in the directive. However, whether it is included will not make any difference to the distinction between the terms "undertaking" and "establishment". I am advised that neither does it make a difference with regard to the application of the term under the Act. The term is also used in the directive and, unless the context requires otherwise, it has the same meaning. I will revisit the matter on Report Stage.
