48 Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Minister for Justice and Law Reform if his attention has been drawn to the fact that seven domestic workers employed by diplomats have complained to the Labour Relations Commission about their treatment by their employers, and that three of these cases are so serious they have been referred to the Garda anti-trafficking unit; and if he will introduce measures similar to those in place in Belgium, Germany and Britain, where diplomatic visas are issued with stipulations that diplomatic employers comply with an existing code of practice on the protection of their domestic staff.
