Work Life Balance and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2023-01-31
============================================================

Roderic O'Gorman (GP), Dublin West

As I said before, we are reasonably confident we have achieved the right balance in the standards set. It is clear that what has been looked for here is whether the relationship between the employee seeking the leave and the individual is meeting the criteria of the directive in terms of the named relationships that are set out. I will chat to officials and confirm that we are happy that the right balance has been reached.
