Full Pay For Victims Of Domestic Violence

PEOPLE who must take domestic violence leave will receive full pay, Equality Minister Roderic O'Gorman said yesterday.

He has bowed to pressure from Government and opposition politicians as well as advocacy groups.

They urged him to amend proposals suggesting that victims would only be partially paid if they needed time off work.

Mr O'Gorman said the leave will be formally introduced in the autumn with the publication of regulations setting out the rate of pay and guidance for employers.

This is currently being developed by Women's Aid.
