Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Retention of Records Bill 2019: Discussion
Ms Eileen Molloy:
I have been listening today and I know the legalities have to be taken into consideration and they are very important when it comes to the finalisation of the Bill. However, we also spoke about balance. I have heard that word used I hope it was not just bandied about and I really hope this will be balanced. Our opinion would not be nearly as important, obviously, as the legalities, because the law is the law, but it is almost side by side with that and they should go hand in hand. If our records are revealed to us now, once and for all, it is done. However, we are getting this in drip feed after drip feed. It is tiring. I hope the committee does not think we are going to go away because we are not.
