I move amendment No. 24: In page 14, to delete lines 2 to 4 and substitute the following: “(4) Subject to the approval of the employer and employee, an employee’s approved flexible working arrangement shall not commence before a time when the employee concerned has completed 6 months continuous employment with the employer concerned.”. Amendment No. 25 is an alternative to amendment No. 24, which would provide that subsection (4) shall not apply where an employer and employee agree to commence an employee's approved flexible working arrangement prior to the completion of six months continuous employment with the employer concerned.
