My Department remains committed to meeting its public sector duty obligations under Section 42 of the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission Act 2014.
As the Deputy will be aware the drafting of legislation is undertaken with the support and advice of the Office of Parliamentary Counsel and followed accordingly by my Department.
