Lifting of discrimination against women in business
The National Commission for Lebanese Women (NCLW) announced in a statement yesterday the abolishment by Lebanese Legislature of the discriminatory provisions against women related to bankruptcy as stipulated in the land trade law. Noting, that the Parliament General Assembly, in its extraordinary session on March 6 and 7, 2019, has introduced amendments and added new terms to the said legislation. These include, amendment of the provisos of bankruptcy to the end of ensuring gender equality, particularly in Articles 615 and 625 up to 629. Recalling, former MP Gilbert Zwein, former head of the Committee for Woman and Child, has submitted the draft to end discrimination against Lebanese women, and NCLW adopted it within its national campaign ‘Wayn Ba’dna’ launched back in 2011 to this effect. The full amendments can be found on the link below: https://bit.ly/2HRTtpA. (Al Diyar, Al Mustaqbal, April 2, 2019)
