Clare’s Sinn Fein TD is set to introduce a Bill which would make it illegal to discriminate against somebody in the workplace due to their accent or socio-economic background.
The Bill, if passed, would make it illegal for employers to unfairly treat a job applicant or current employee based on how they sound or where they come from.
Kilrush-based Deputy Violet-Anne Wynne will introduce the Bill along with her party colleague, Dublin Bay South TD Chris Andrews, following concerns raised by constituents.

Deputy Wynne believes the legislation will receive cross-party support across the Dail chamber.
