Question:
To ask the Minister for the Economy to detail how his proposed Good Jobs Employment Rights Bill (i) aligns; and (ii) differs from similar legislation being brought forward by the UK Government.

Answer:

Final policy decisions have not yet been made on the content of my Good Jobs Employment Rights Bill. Once I have finalised my policy decisions, the policy content of the Bill will be subject to Executive agreement. At that point, any similarities and differences between my Good Jobs Employment Rights Bill and the legislative position in Britain can be clarified.
