Courts, Civil Law, Criminal Law and Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (10 Jul 2024)

Brendan Howlin: The Minister is very much downplaying what is a fundamental change in law. It is a matter of constitutional law, as determined by the Supreme Court. I make the general point that it is unfortunate that such a change would be brought in as a Committee Stage amendment without proper pre-legislative scrutiny. A number of external bodies, including the Irish Human Rights and Equality...

Mairead Farrell: I welcome the passing of this Bill. It is very important that we have worked collaboratively on it. The Bill is necessary and will have an impact on many students. We have seen that, unfortunately, vulture funds specifically have begun to use 51-week leases as a way of forcing students to pay even more for student accommodation. We must tackle student accommodation and affordability from...

Courts, Civil Law, Criminal Law and Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: Order for Committee Stage (10 Jul 2024)

Brendan Howlin: I have no objection to taking Committee Stage now, but I would like to make a point of order. This is a catch-all Bill that deals with everything from revoking people's citizenship to amending the Broadcasting Act and a range of other issues. Fundamental issues are being included now that were not debated on Second Stage. The Leas-Cheann Comhairle might advise me whether Committee Stage is...
