Stephen S. Donnelly

Ceist:

580 Deputy Stephen S. Donnelly asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of cases in which his Department is a respondent to claims by staff members that are currently before the Equality Tribunal or Labour Court; if he will state in each case when his Department was first notified of the claim; if he will state in each case if his Department was invited by the Equality Tribunal to engage in mediation and whether it engaged in mediation, if not, the reason for same; if he will estimate for each case the financial exposure that each case presents and the amount of legal fees incurred to date on each case; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

My Department is currently a respondent in one such case before the Equality Tribunal. As the case is still active it would not be appropriate for me to comment on any aspect of it.
