I move amendment No. 2:

In page 10, line 40, after “concerned” to insert the following:“and 3 months’ notice of this decision shall be given to the trade union by the Court of its decision after which an appeal maybe heard no later than 6 weeks after the decision has been made”.

This amendment was tabled following representations from the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, which said it would be better for the union involved if it were given a three-month notice period. Again, we discussed this on Committee Stage, and I remember the Minister of State's response that it was unnecessary, but we felt it was important to table the amendment again.
