Brendan Howlin: I move amendment No. 13: In page 7, line 24, to delete “subsections (2A) and (2B)” and substitute “subsections (2A) to (2D)” It is a procedural part of our bundle of amendments to section 4, which sets out amendments to the Judicial Council Act 2019. Last April's Supreme Court decision in the Delaney case upheld, as discussed on Second Stage, the validity of...

Brendan Howlin: It is important for us to know, if there will be a fast-track process for certain nationalities, how people get on that list, what countries are on the list and how it is done. I am unclear about it. Does the Minister see a role for the Oireachtas, by way of the Committee on Justice or some other way, discussing the countries with her before she expands the list? Does she intend to add to...

Jim O'Callaghan: Amendments Nos. 4 to 12, inclusive, seek to amend the International Protection Act 2015 on foot of a decision I referred to earlier, which was a decision by the High Court in March of this year, A and B applicants v. the International Protection Appeals Tribunal, IPAT, and the Minister for Justice. I have a suspicion that this legislation will end up before the courts again so it is...

Helen McEntee: There are two separate things with regard to the safe countries, but I can provide the ways in which they are applied. We now have 15 countries deemed to be safe countries of origin. I hope this legislation will be enacted and the requirements of the High Court ruling met. Then we will need to revisit the question of the UK. However, we do not want to rush into it without engaging with...

- Courts, Civil Law, Criminal Law and Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (10 Jul 2024)
Brendan Howlin: I welcome the improvement in safeguards to comply with the judgments of the court. What are the criteria and what is the process in determining what is a safe country? Is it possible for the process itself to become more transparent? Does the Minister see a role for the Oireachtas in discussing such matters with her, rather than simply the Department and the Minister making a determination...
- Courts, Civil Law, Criminal Law and Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (10 Jul 2024)
Helen McEntee: I do not have the specific criteria for it with me. There is a very clear process which I can make available to Deputy Howlin. A number of organisations, international and otherwise, need to be consulted. Various elements need to be taken into consideration also. I can make the information available to Deputy Howlin. It is somewhat separate to this, but at the same time, it is all...
