Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Go raibh maith agat. The next three speakers are Deputies Tóibín, Danny Healy-Rae and Catherine Murphy.

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Peadar Tóibín: I welcome the amendments that have deleted the censorship elements of the Bill. I have no doubt they are being ditched because of the groundswell of opposition against the Bill in its former state. I have no doubt that Simon Harris is better at reading opinion polls than Leo Varadkar. That is probably one of the reasons we have seen this significant change in recent times. In truth,...

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Catherine Connolly: Anois, an Teachta Danny Healy-Rae. I point out for the record and generally for the House that we are speaking on amendments Nos. 1 to 7, inclusive, amendment No. 1 to amendment No. 7, amendments Nos. 8 to 23, inclusive, amendment No. 34, amendment No. 64 and amendment No. 75. Somebody might surprise me.

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I am glad to get the opportunity to talk again on this Bill that does not make any sense. The people who fought for our country back in 1916, over 100 years ago, were glad that one of the things they fought for was freedom of speech and the freedom to express an opinion. There seems to be a different emphasis now rather than having a focus on those two vital aspects of having commonsense...

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Mattie McGrath: I could not agree more with the previous speaker that this legislation should be parked and left for another Government, if at all. I too, and all right-thinking people, am fundamentally opposed to any hate speech - any hatred, divisions or people bring portrayed, and being attacked and undermined because of their religion, race, colour creed or whatever. This Bill is a shambles and it...

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Mick Barry: Socialists stand in complete solidarity with those who are victims of hate crimes and hate speech. We salute campaigners in groups such as the Coalition Against Hate Crime Ireland for highlighting the impact of hate crime and hate speech and pushing for action to be taken. Hate crimes and hate speech have a real impact on people's lives and the lives of oppressed groups. Being the victim...

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Matt Carthy: I welcome the opportunity to discuss these proposed amendments. There has been a lot of play-acting, for want of a better term, and misrepresenting of various positions in respect of this legislation, which has undergone quite an amount of debate in this House and publicly. I wish to state very clearly that there is a distinction to be drawn here. I refer to those who rightly recognise...

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Brendan Howlin: I thank the Minister. We support the position she has just outlined. We also regret that the Bill has been substantially changed since it was passed by this House. We understand the reasons for it. The amendment I propose is to deal with this sudden change in the Seanad. The position was that when the Bill was debated on Second Stage in the Seanad, having passed this House, it was...

Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Pa Daly: What exactly were the legal and technical issues with Deputy Howlin's amendment? With regard to the 1989 Act, was introducing the concept of recklessness to broaden it out somewhat ever considered? Amendments Nos. 1 to 7, inclusive, delete reference to the EU framework. With regard to the definitions of "hate" and "hatred", we moved a number of amendments on the definition of "hatred" as...

Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Alan Dillon: If we were doing nothing, we would be criticised for not investing in the LDA, which is a crucial vehicle for direct delivery of homes. It is important we continue to invest in its pipeline of projects. I mentioned some of its achievements to date. We are finalising the national planning framework and there will be revised structural housing targets. We are looking at new revision under...

Helen McEntee: I will speak to my amendments and Deputy Howlin's and we can respond to each other. I am pleased to bring the amended Bill back before the Dáil. The Bill completed all Stages in the Seanad last week and I wish to report back to the Dáil the amendments agreed in the Seanad. As Deputies are aware, the Bill originally had two objectives: to update and modernise our existing...
