Companies (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Covid-19) Bill 2020 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed)
Dail Éireann — 2020-07-30
============================================================

Marian Harkin (IND), Sligo-Leitrim

I ask the Government, in that context, to make sure what it carries out is actually reform.
Finally, I will return to the point on the Bill after my slight diversion. This Bill is worthy of support and it shows this Government and this House can respond in a timely and proportionate manner to some of the issues faced by companies and workers at this time. I also agree with Deputy Berry who spoke earlier about the fact that this is good legislation in its own right. When it comes to the end of this year, on 31 December, I will certainly be one of the people looking at extending this legislation.
