Description

The government should introduce a right for employees to flexible and remote work in order to deal with the issue of congestion. That’s according to a new private members motion from the Labour Party.   


Our reporter Sarah Madden asked commuters what they think of the proposal and we discussed further with Ciaran Ahern, Labour TD for Dublin Southwest and Spokesperson on Transport.
