finite time-scales

Law/Patents
English term or phrase: finite time-scales
There is therefore ample scope for lawyers to make enormous amounts of money and create an enormous amount of confusion for employers. In brief, for the first time a formal system of request, consideration, decision and appeal will be created in relation to flexible working, which, of course, includes teleworking.

This will be laid down with finite time scales – it will look great on paper! It will equally be a nightmare in practice! People do not have enough detail as to how it will work to do this effectively.
