Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

General Scheme of the Criminal Justice (Victims of Crime) (Amendment) Bill 2018: Discussion

Ms Caroline Counihan:

I do not have the relevant section in front of me but from memory, section 26(3)(a) of the Civil Legal Aid Act 1995 refers to legal advice, and does not cite any particular limitation. It does not stipulate that someone can only have one, two, three, or four hours of counsel, for example.
