Employees (Provision of Information and Consultation) Bill 2005: Committee Stage.
4:00 pm
Tony Killeen (Clare, Fianna Fail)
This, as already stated, will initially serve as an enabling provision. It will allow the Minister of the day to designate officers to follow up complaints that might be made as regards the information and consultation requirements. At this stage, I am not in a position to say exactly what this might entail. However, it is really important to provide for it in the legislation so that the Minister of the day will be in a position to appoint or issue warrants to people charged with this responsibility. That is all we are attempting to do at this stage.
