Helen McEntee (Meath East, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

For the information of members, I am referring to is section 4 of amendment No. 14, parts (b) (i) and (ii) with reference to the relationship between the defendant and the fact that they would have to have "made use of personal information, correspondence or records about the other person,". The sense is that this is too prescriptive and makes it more difficult as one has to prove all of this. What the legislation proposes to do is that the offence has occurred without having to prove as outlined in the amendment.
