HL Deb 17 April 2000 vol 612 c80WA
Lord Laird

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Which Health and Social Services Trusts in Northern Ireland have not implemented Regulation 16 of the Working Time Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1998 (Payment in Respect of Periods of Annual Leave); and what are their reasons for not doing so. [HL1939]

Baroness Farrington of Ribbleton

No Health and Social Services Trust has fully implemented Regulation 16 of the Working Time Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1998. Due to the complexity of this particular regulation, its implementation is being pursued through discussions between employing authorities and staff organisations on a regional basis.
