After many hours of debate, MPs have reached the final stage of the controversial pay equity legislation.

The Government introduced the Bill under urgency yesterday - which lifts the bar for claims of sex-based discrimination and forces existing claims to restart.

NZ College of Midwives Chief Executive Alison Eddy says it's unclear how much of the sector will be impacted.

"We have to wait for the court to decide that...we've still got some way to go."
