Mr. Liam Herrick:

I note the source to which the Deputy referred. I understand that the body in question is without any legal status. We take as our first standard international bodies of which Ireland is a member, such as the United Nations, the Council of Europe and the European Union. The Deputy will be aware that, obviously, United Nations standards will apply to both civil and common law jurisdictions. The Council of Europe standards also apply to common law and civil law systems. We are very happy to rely on those as the primary source of standards. Of course, we need to learn from best practice as well.
