However, indirect discrimination is only covered by the Sex Discrimination Act and cannot be used in a claim for equal pay under UK law. This has had a serious effect on the ability of part-time workers to claim equal pay and conditions pro-rata with full-time workers.

Amalgamation of the two UK Acts will mean that a part-time equal pay.

The extent of job-segregation means that the Equal Pay Act excludes vast numbers of women who work in women-only jobs. Amalgamation of the two Acts would introduce the concept of the 'hypothetical man' into pay and open up the possibilities for dealing with women's low pay.

-International news i INLA chief admits involvement with Darkley kıllings Organiser, December Page DOMINIC McGlinchey, chief of staff of the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA), admitted INLA involvement in the Darkley sectarian killings, in an interview last week with the editor of the Dublin Sunday Tribune, Vincent Browne.

Browne, who used to edit Magill magazine, is something of a specialist in the internal affairs of the Republican movement.

Speaking to Browne at secret meeting last week, McGlinchey admitted that he gave a gun used in the Darkley massacre to an INLA member for use on a member of the Protestant Ulster Volunteer Force.

"Barkley's killing finally estranged the bulk of the previous organisation, who began to be appalled at their new leader's behaviour. Stories circulated about Barkley being shot, stripped and buried so that no evidence would be left of the crime...

The body was eventually disinterred and dumped, still without clothes, at the Border on October 27 last, several days after the killing had occurred.
