Work Life Balance and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed)

I move amendment No. 68:
In page 34, line 31, after “her” to insert “or their”.
I welcome section 34 and think it is inclusive language in recognising women and other persons who may need to avail of the provisions in the section.This is a technical amendment. In order to be consistent with the inclusive framing that has been used, if we were to say "her or their", it would be consistent with the "women or other persons" language. Again it is inconsistent with what is an otherwise appropriately well-framed section.
