Cabinet gender pay gap bill may slow progress, claims union

The general scheme of a bill, which will require companies with more than 50 staff to publish information on gender pay gaps among its staff, has been published by the Justice Minister Charlie Flanagan and Equality Minister David Stanton.
However, Fórsa, the second largest union in the country, has hit out at the Government for insisting on publishing its own bill instead of simply amending opposition proposals that have already passed second stage.
