I somewhat agree with what has been said, even with respect to the collective agreement.
The provisions of the bill provide for a certain number of days of sick leave, but of course if a collective agreement or contract provides for more, the provisions of the bill do not apply, so I don’t see the point of this amendment. It seems to me that it’s a basic rule, that it’s a minimum and that some people may be entitled to more leave.
I don’t see the need for this amendment, unless I’m given more explanation.
